⚠️ Beach Safety Reminder ⚠️

Digging holes in the sand may seem harmless and fun, but deep holes can become extremely dangerous in seconds. Sand can collapse without warning, trapping children and adults and making rescue very difficult. Large holes also create hazards for other beachgoers and emergency crews.

Let’s work together to keep our beaches safe and enjoyable for everyone this season! 🌊☀️
