Seattle Parks and Recreation will hold sales of low cost life jackets on Saturdays from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on: May 15, June 19, July 17, August 21, and September 18. The cost for life jackets, sizes infant to youth large, is $20, and for teens to adult size XXL, is $30.
All sales are final. No refunds, no returns.
The pool is located at 7201 E. Green Lake Dr. N. The phone number is 684-4961.
Purchasers under age 18 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Fitters will be on site to help purchaser choose the correct size. The person for whom the jacket is being purchased must be present for proper fitting.
Why buy a lifejacket?
- Washington State law requires children ages 12 and under to wear a Coast Guard approved life jacket or life vest on vessels less than 19 feet long. In addition, there must be a life jacket on board for each person older than 12 years.
- Drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury death among children ages 1 – 14 years old. Wearing a life jacket saves lives.
We extend special thanks to our partners, Seattle Children’s Hospital, Fisheries Supply, Rehab Without Walls, and the Coast Guard Auxiliary for their support of this event.
Don’t miss this opportunity to purchase a stylish, Coast Guard approved life jacket! For more information please call Diane Jones at 206-684-7440, or email at diane.jones@seattle.gov.
