It’s boating season in Upstate New York! New York has hundreds upon hundreds of lakes, creeks, rivers, canals, and other waterways where we thoroughly enjoy the boating season. I grew up by Lake Oneida, New York’s largest inland lake, and I learned from an early age to respect the water and always follow safety regulations. I learned to canoe and to motorboat– what great fun!
However, boating season is also the time where some people are injured or killed, because they haven’t followed the basic boating safety rules. Last year, there were some deaths reported because idiots were drinking and boating, and killed people. There is no excuse for boating operating under the influence! There are numerous resources about Boating Education Online. Here are a few short movies you may enjoy:
Please exercise caution when boating, and be respectful of others. And please obey boating safety regulations! Make this year’s boating season the best and most enjoyable ever!
