FOR YOUR SAFETY

When visiting Lake Seminole, we recommend that you review the following safety messages for a safe and enjoyable time.  Its not only you enjoy yourself while visiting our project, we also want to ensure a safe return home.  

- Always wear an approved life jacket.
- Know and obey all boating laws.
- Comply with all warning signs around locks and dams
- Be alert to underwater hazards such as submerged stumps, logs and rocks that are present in the lake.
- Be especially careful when approaching the shoreline because depth of water will vary from time to time and place to place. 
- File a trip plan with someone to let them know where you will be and when you plan to return.
- Do not overload your boat. Remember, safe boating is not overloading.
- Swim in designated swimming areas. (In all other areas except those designated "no swimming," individuals may swim at their own risk.)
- Never dive into water of unknown depth.
- Keep children under close supervision at all times, especially when they are in or near the water.
- Do not use alcohol while in, on or around the water.
