Orange Beach Elementary School would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the incredible volunteers, instructors, first responders, community partners, and presenters who helped make our Boating Safety Program this past school year such a meaningful experience for our students.

From learning about life jackets, rip currents, and heaving line tosses to practicing safe boarding techniques, our students gained valuable knowledge and hands-on skills that will help keep them safe on and around the water.

A special thank you to members of the U.S. Coast Guard, Orange Beach Police Department, Orange Beach Fire Rescue, City of Orange Beach Coastal Resources, and all of the dedicated community members who generously shared their time and expertise!
