Ohio Department of Natural Resources Encouraging Boater Safety

Memorial Day weekend is upon us, and that means a lot of people will be doing some boating.

To help ensure a great season, boaters are encouraged to brush up on boater safety.

A couple of things to remember is always wear a life jacket and operate a boat sober.

You should always let someone know where you will be boating and when you plan to return.

ODNR is offering Boater Education Events this summer.
