- With summer right around the corner, Transport Canada's Office
of Boating Safety would like to offer members of The Saskatchewan
Camping Association some free boating safety information that
can be used to enhance their summer programming. The items we
have are:
-
- Publications
- The 2009 Safe Boating Guide
- The Sea Kayaking Guide (a resource guide for the
paddling community)
- Pukta Children's Activity Booklets
- Boating Safety 'Cruncher' Games
-
- DVD "Cold Water Boot Camp"
- Produced in Canada, this half-hour television special
had nine boot campers experience the various stages of cold water
immersion,
from cold water shock to hypothermia. In addition viewers will
gain knowledge on
how to prepare for an accidental cold water immersion, self rescue
techniques,
dealing with hypothermia and how to warm up a hypothermic victim.
It's a great
resource and training tool for camp directors, counselors and
older campers.
- If you are interested in receiving some of these items or
have any questions,
please call or email me.
