Water Smart Rule #6: Know What to Do (Before You Need To)

Emergencies don’t wait. Learn how to recognize signs of distress, call for help, and respond calmly. Don’t jump in the water to save a friend who is struggling – use a long object to reach for them and pull them to safety.

Bonus: Take a CPR or water safety class at your local Y, because heroes aren’t born, they’re trained.

Water Smart Rule # 5: Don’t Hold Your Breath (literally)

Breath-holding contests? Yeah, let’s not.

They might seem like harmless fun, but breath-holding games in the water can be seriously dangerous, even for strong swimmers.
đŸš«Holding your breath too long can lead to shallow water blackout, a silent and sudden emergency that can happen without warning.

🏊At the Y, we teach that water safety isn’t just about swimming, it’s about smart choices. So, skip the contests, and keep the fun safe for everyone.

Fred Hoshiyama’s legacy is one of resilience, leadership, and lasting impact. Born in 1914, Hoshiyama dedicated nearly four decades to the YMCA—from 1941 to 1980—except for the years he was unjustly
incarcerated during WWII. Even then, he didn’t stop serving others. While in the internment camp, he created YMCA-style programs to support the social, educational, and recreational needs of fellow Japanese Americans. In the 1970s, he helped revitalize the YMCA student movement, and today, a scholarship in his name continues to empower Y staff of Asian American Pacific Islander heritage to grow as leaders. His story is a powerful reminder of how one person can shape a movement.

Mental health is for everyone.💚

Mental well-being is shaped by more than what’s happening in our minds. It’s influenced by external factors too – like access to food, stable housing, a sense of belonging, and strong community connections. At the Greater Lowell Y, we believe mental health belongs to everyone, and everyone deserves support.
