A scarey segment on The Today Show this morning highlighted the danger of faulty swimming pool drains. (To see the segment, go to http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/3041445/ and select "Keeping pool safety in mind" from the list of videos on the right.) When there's a problem, the suction can trap children on the drain so they drown. (There are other problems, too.)Who knew? Not me. And probably many more. Are you in a position to talk about this threat in a credible way? Then do so. Talk to your local media outlets so they can protect local families. This is a great opportunity to do good while getting some exposure if you're:
- A pool and spa retailer
- Consumer safety advocate
- Nonprofit advocating for child safety
- Pool and spa manufacturer/dealer association
- Lifeguard
- Public pool manager
- Country club manager
- Pool drain manufacturer
