Four more Coastal Bend businesses are stepping up for water safety. 🌊😎

We’re proud to welcome our next group of Official Water Safety Partners joining Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week.

A heartfelt thank you to Nueces Brewing and Barbecuing, The Slime Bar by Treat Yo’Self, Golden Hour and Island Time Sushi Bar for joining this community-wide effort and helping us carry the message of water safety even further.

Because water safety doesn’t belong in just one place or one season. It matters everywhere our families live, play, gather, and enjoy the water.

Every business that shares the message helps us reach another parent, another caregiver, and another family — building a more informed, prepared, and water-wise Coastal Bend.

So grateful to have local businesses using their voices to help keep water safety at the forefront in our Coastal Bend community. 🌊🤍

Thank you, Jaclyn, for sharing your heart behind supporting Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week and why this message matters to you.

This is exactly what this initiative is about—bringing our community together, starting conversations, educating families, and reminding one another that water safety matters year-round here in the Coastal Bend.

So thankful to have you standing alongside us. 💙

Strong swimmers are built on strong foundations. 🐘

Before speed comes technique. Before independence comes body awareness. And sometimes, the most important progress happens in the smallest adjustments.

We’re working on creating a stronger, more horizontal body position in the water while developing purposeful, consistent kicks that help move him forward with greater efficiency and control.

These foundational skills take repetition, patience, and practice — but every kick is building toward a more confident, capable swimmer. 🤍

Because learning to swim isn’t just about getting from one side of the pool to the other. It’s about learning how to move through the water with purpose.

Safe today. Strong for life. 🌊

Meet Daniel. 🌊

A TAMU–CC Marine Biology student, former competitive swimmer, and someone whose life has been shaped by the water.

As we get ready for Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week, I’m bringing different voices from our community into the conversation about what water safety means to them.

Because being comfortable around water and being prepared around water are two very different things.

From the pool to the beach, the bay, and everywhere in between — water safety doesn’t have a season.

Water safety is stronger when a community comes together. 💙🌊🤝

There’s something incredibly special about watching local businesses throughout the Coastal Bend come together around a shared purpose.

I’m so grateful to our Official Water Safety Partners for joining Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week and helping carry this important message throughout our community and into the everyday places and moments where families are around water.

Every share, every conversation, and every opportunity to put water safety in front of another family matters. Together, we’re helping keep water safety visible, continuing the conversation beyond summer, and reminding families that preparedness and prevention matter all year long.

Because water safety doesn’t have a season. 🌊

Thank you to each of our partners for believing in this mission and choosing to be part of it. I’m so excited to see our community come together for something that can truly make a difference.

And we’re just getting started. 💙

These are more than skills mastered. They’re layers of water safety. 💙🌊

Breath control. Independent swimming. Floating. Rotations. Learning how to move through the water, find her back, rest, breathe, and keep going.

Every skill she has worked so hard to learn gives her another tool in the water and that’s why lessons matter.

Water safety isn’t about teaching children to never need us. No swim skill replaces active adult supervision. It’s about adding another layer of protection and helping children become more capable, confident, and prepared around water.

This is why we practice.
This is why we build skills one step at a time.
And this is why water safety matters far beyond summertime. 💙

So incredibly proud of this swimmer and everything she has accomplished. 🫶

Safe today. Strong for life. 🌊

Water safety doesn’t have a season. 💙🌊

Here in the Coastal Bend, water is part of our everyday lives—from backyard pools and beaches to boating, fishing and weekends spent along the coast. And when summer ends, the need for water safety doesn’t.

That’s why I’m so proud to introduce Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week, happening September 14–20.

For one week, we’re bringing families, local businesses and community partners together around one shared mission: raise awareness, educate families and help give more local children access to lifesaving water safety skills.

Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing water safety education, highlighting our incredible Official Water Safety Partners, creating opportunities for our community to get involved, and supporting the Float It Forward Scholarship Fund in partnership with Hope Floats Foundation

But my hope is that the conversation doesn’t end on September 20th.

Because keeping our children safer around water takes all of us—and together, we can create a more water-wise Coastal Bend. 💙

Safe today. Strong for life.

🍂🌊🐘 Introducing Fall Into Water Safety

This September, we’re bringing a new kind of water safety conversation to the Coastal Bend—one that doesn’t end when summer does.

September 14–20, 2026, Safe & Strong Swim Academy will launch Fall Into Water Safety: Coastal Bend Water Safety Celebration Week—bringing together local businesses, families, advocates, and community partners to keep water safety education and awareness at the forefront all year long.

Here in the Coastal Bend, water is part of the way we live. Our children grow up around pools, lakes, beaches, bays, and the coast we call home. Keeping them safer around water deserves to be a year-round conversation.

Throughout Celebration Week, we’ll educate, raise awareness, share experiences, and help expand access to survival swim instruction for local children.

Through participating businesses and community activations, we’ll also support the Float It Forward Scholarship Fund, in partnership with the Hope Floats Foundation helping provide survival swim scholarships for Coastal Bend children. 💙

We’re so proud to introduce our first Official Water Safety Partners:
