The United States Coast Guard held an open house Saturday morning, inviting the community to the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Unit Cleveland to take tours, view demonstrations and learn safety tips to prevent drownings and boating accidents.
During the event, members of the Coast Guard showcased how they train and execute their rescue operations in an effort to let the community know that they intend to be ready whenever they are needed.
“That includes making sure you have your life jackets and that people are wearing them," Schell said. “That includes filing a float plan with a loved one onshore, making sure they know where you’re going when you're expected." “It’s really, really warm today but that water temperature is not, it’s dangerously cold," Schell said.
