May 19 to 25: National Safe Boating Week – Boating safety advocates are encouraged to plan an event in their community, and share #safeboatingweek and #safeboating information on social media using campaign resources.
May 19, June 9, July 7, August 11: Ready, Set, Wear It events – Boating safety advocates can find resources to plan a #RSWI2018 event in their local community at www.safeboatingcampaign.com. 
The Safe Boating Campaign will have a presence at community events throughout the summer, such as The Honor Connor 5K and Smile Mile in North Richland Hills, Texas, on May 26 and Rock the River in Fredericksburg, Virginia, on June 2.
The Safe Boating Campaign is produced under a grant from the Sports Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund and administered by the U.S. Coast Guard.
