Josh the Baby Otter Water Safety Program
The goal of the Josh the Baby Otter Water Safety Program is to educate children with a fun and simple message: To stay away from water unless accompanied by an adult. “Josh the Baby Otter” was created to help children comprehend and remember this important message. Ultimately, the aim is to create a water safety behavior for all children that will be passed on from generation to generation.
The Program provides a book with an audio CD of someone reading the book.
The Club began its participation in the Josh the Baby Otter Program in 2013 during the Presidency of Karen Fuller. Books with audio CDs are purchased by the Club and provided to H.A.N.D.S. for inclusion in their Kinder Camp activities for pre-school children. Children who do not participate in Kinder Camp receive their book and CD when they enter kindergarten.
