Did you send in a picture of yourself wearing your life jacket at work on Friday? If you did, please post it to this forum. This is me as I was preparing for a kayaking class for scouts.

Friday May 21, 2021 is Wear Your Life Jacket at Work Day! This fun holiday promotes life jacket awareness and use. Boaters can participate by sharing a picture of themselves wearing a life jacket at work (or working from home) on social media with the hashtag #lifejacketatwork and tagging @boatingcampaign on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. Photos can also be sent in by email to outreach@safeboatingcouncil.org. Share this event with your friends to join in on the fun! Participants will be chosen randomly throughout the day to receive free boating swag from the National Safe Boating Council’s Safe Boating Campaign. https://safeboatingcampaign.com/news/wear-your-life-jacket-at-work-day-2021/

This is the kickoff event for National Safe Boating Week, which will be on May 22-28 (the week before Memorial Day weekend). Its purpose is to educate the boating public, in a fun way, about the safety and comfort of life jackets. Take pictures of yourself or your group and email them to outreach@safeboatingcouncil.org or post them by tagging @boatingcampaign with the hashtag #lifejacketatwork. Some prizes will be awarded during the day.
