The Park and Recreation Department offers these sensible safety tips to make the plunge as fun and safe as possible:
- Anyone with heart problems—Just watch
- Do not drink—Alcohol speeds up hypothermia
- Do not stay in the water longer than 15 minutes
- Do not remove clothing until swim time
- Don’t put dry clothing on over wet clothing
