RIP CURRENT: Stay safe while at the beach this summer! This could save your life. Do you know what a rip current looks like? We have probably all seen them and weren't aware of the danger. When you see waves and then a small section of "flat" waves in between, that's a rip current. The water is moving in the opposite direction. Stay clear of these areas!! This is NOT a calm place to hang out with small children.
in addition, if you find you are being pulled out, NEVER try to move straight back to shore...walk parallel to shore until you no longer feel the pull of the current, and then head back in
