Recreational Water Illness (RWI) Prevention
This year, the week preceding Memorial Day was for the first time designated as National Recreational Water Illness Prevention Week.
The goal of this year's recognition was to highlight the importance of
healthy swimming, healthy swimming behavior, and recreational water illness
prevention. This was done by emphasizing operation and prevention
tips for pool operators and pool patrons to ensure healthy swimming
experience.
