The Erieau Community Association is proud to present Marine & Water Safety Day: a fun, educational, and family-friendly event focused on promoting water safety and drowning prevention in Chatham-Kent.

This engaging event will take place in the beautiful lakeside community of Erieau and is designed for attendees of all ages. Families, residents, and visitors are invited to participate in a day of learning and interaction with local first responders and marine safety professionals. The goal is to raise awareness about safe practices on and around the water.

Experts from Chatham-Kent Fire and Rescue, OPP Marine Services, and other emergency personnel will be on hand to provide demonstrations, answer questions, and share life-saving tips. Attendees will also learn more about the CK Water Safe Drowning Prevention Program, which plays a vital role in reducing water-related incidents through education and community outreach.

The event is being held in partnership with the Erieau Community Association, Erieau Marina, Chatham-Kent Fire and Rescue, and Local and Ontario Provincial Police Marine personnel. With boating, swimming, and other water activities being such a large part of life in Erieau and the surrounding region, this event provides an important opportunity to learn how to stay safe while enjoying our natural waterways.

Join us for an afternoon of awareness, education, and community spirit!

Prizes and giveaways for the kids!
