Safe Boating Awareness Week – May 16 to 22, 2026
Published May 19, 2026
Citizen informationThe Municipality wishes to highlight Safe Boating Awareness Week, taking place from May 16 to 22, 2026. This annual initiative aims to raise awareness among residents about the importance of adopting safe practices while enjoying activities on the water.
With several lakes and waterways within our territory, safety is a shared responsibility. Boaters are reminded to always wear a lifejacket, ensure their equipment is in good working order before departure, and stay informed about weather conditions. It is also important to note that operating a boat under the influence of alcohol or drugs significantly increases the risk of accidents.
The Municipality encourages all residents and visitors to act responsibly and remain vigilant while on the water. By taking simple preventive measures, everyone can help ensure our waterways remain safe and enjoyable for all throughout the boating season.
