DID YOU KNOW a north-northeast wind creates the largest waves on Lake Michigan in SE WI, and the larger the waves, the stronger the currents.

Rip currents aren’t uncommon on Lake Michigan. If you ever find yourself being pulled away from shore (caught in a rip currents), swim parallel to the shore to get out of it. If you swim against the current and tire yourself out, flip and float on your back, let the current take you out, and then swim back to shore.

The Beach Ambassadors will be supporting the Healthy County Challenge at Community Pool Day this Friday! 🏊🏾‍♀️

Detailed caption from the Facebook event page below 👇

“Join County Executive Crowley for a Community Pool Day at Schulz Aquatic Center! Learn more about water safety and swimming opportunities from Milwaukee County’s Lifeguard Corps, Junior Lifeguards, Beach Ambassadors, MKE Rec, and the Kraken Swim Team.

Outside of the pool, you can try out stationary cycling with demonstrations from Spinn MKE, take an all-abilities yoga class with Embody Yoga, and relax to a soothing sound bath with Camille Mays. Or, just stay cool in the pool and listen to your favorite summer jams!

And the best part? Admission to the pool is FREE all day long.

The event is free and open to the public with no prior registration required.
