Water safety programs are so important, especially when you live in a community surrounded by water.That's why YMCA Southcoast is offering an eight-week "Safety Around Water" program at its locations with a pool in New Bedford, Fall River and Wareham.Tara Pacheco, the Executive Director at YMCA Southcoast in New Bedford, spoke with us about the program on this week's Townsquare Sunday.She said the Safety Around Water program is more than just swimming lessons."We are trying to get them to think more about safety than how fast you can get to the other end of the pool, or how many laps they can swim," she said.
