Cont. from page 68... Don’t bring children or your pet.
Go with friends and watch out for each other.

You are allowed any non-motorized option to go down
the river.... take a Kayak or Canoe to have an easier
navigational and safer experience.

This non-sanctioned (you’re on your own) event is held
the 3rd Sunday in August around 1pm at Lighthouse
Beach in Port Huron ending at Chrysler Beach in Marys-
ville ... or sooner. An interesting event to witness on
Sunday, August 20, 2017.

Cold Water Survival: Body size, body fat, and move-
 ment in the water play a part in cold-water survival.

   Small people get colder faster... The chart below
shows why it is important to wear a life jacket if you’re

     going to be in the St. Clair River for 2-3 hours.
