Every spring as the weather warms, swimmers and boaters start to appear along the shores of our area lakes and rivers. It is the goal of the Stanislaus Consolidated Fire Protection District (SCFPD), along with the State of California Department of Boating and Waterways to make these water ways as safe as possible. In order to speed the process for a life jacket loan, the form can be downloaded and filled out in advance. Check out the summer safety tips in order to ensure an injury-free enjoyable summertime.
