PFD Pool Plunge

March 26 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Two men, one in a pfd, the other holding an inflatable matt, both dressed for swimming

Ever tried to swim in your Personal Flotation Device, more commonly known as your PFD? Especially while fully clothed? It’s MUCH tougher than it looks!

The PFD Pool Plunge is a rare opportunity to try this out while fully dressed, in a safe, not-too-cold environment at Stan Siwik Pool in Lethbridge. This is a learning opportunity to recognize how to wear your pdf correctly, what size is appropriate for you, and how to help yourself should you end up in the water.

  • Bring your own pfd, or use a pfd’s provided by the pool.
  • Bring a towel and a complete change of clothing for after the event.
  • Please ensure your pfd (if using your own) and ‘plunging’ clothing are clean, without any oils, perfumes, or soaps in them.
  • Empty your pockets before the plunge.
  • Maximum 50 participants.

Admission is free for this event, but for DASA adult and youth members only. Membership information can be found here.

Best of all… unlike tipping a dragon boat, this will be fun!
