READER SCRIPT
(DOES NOT FULLY MATCH AUDIO)
SUMMER VACATION IS THE TIME OF YEAR WHEN WE LOOK FORWARD TO OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES AT THE POOL, LAKE, AND BEACH. BUT, ACCIDENTS CAN HAPPEN, IF YOU TAKE A VACATION FROM SAFETY. FIRST, LEARN TO SWIM--AND SWIM WELL. NOBODY SHOULD EVER SWIM ALONE--INCLUDING ADULTS. ALSO, CHILDREN MUST ALWAYS BE SUPERVISED. THOSE WHO AREN'T STRONG SWIMMERS NEED TO WEAR U-S COAST GUARD-APPROVED LIFE JACKETS, ANYTIME THEY'RE AROUND WATER. USED PROPERLY, THESE PLASTIC VESTS CAN HELP SAVE LIVES. A FIRST-AID KIT, A CORDLESS PHONE, AND A REACHING POLE ARE SAFETY ESSENTIALS--AS IS A "THROW-ABLE" PLASTIC RING BUOY, WITH A NYLON LINE ATTACHED. PLASTIC-FOAM RING BUOYS ARE SO LIGHT THAT EVEN A CHILD CAN SAVE A LIFE, BY TOSSING IT TO THE VICTIM. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SUMMER WATER SAFETY, VISIT "AMERICAN-PLASTICS-COUNCIL"-DOT-ORG.
