About this event
On Sunday, May 15th, International Water Safety Day, a number of aquatic organizations will host a Water Safety Festival at Texas Southern University. This FREE event will start at 10:30 am for participants. During the event, all ages of participants will learn about water safety and gain knowledge about various opportunities in aquatics while celebrating the accomplishments of Houston area aquatics programming under Coach Johnnie Means. Through a collaborative network of aquatic agencies, we are supplying gear, give-a-ways, and more than $5,000 of financial support for aquatic programming through learn to swim scholarships, certifications, and more at Texas Southern University, a Historical Black College, and University (HBCU). Come one or come all to be a part of this amazing event. This event will provide a collective experience for educating, promoting, and supporting aquatics. The event will be held at:
