Freedom Boat Club Lake George is continuing to help keep kids safe while on the water by participating in the BoatU.S. Foundation life jacket loaner program.
This program, made possible by the BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water, allows boaters to borrow a child’s life jacket for the day or the weekend, at no charge.
If a boating family discovers they don’t have enough properly-fitting children’s life jackets on board, they can visit Freedom Boat Club Lake George at Beckley’s Marina, 3950 Lake Shore Dr., Bolton Landing, and sign out an a jacket for the day. When they’ve finished boating, they can return the jackets to the same location.
Freedom Boat Club Lake George was awarded a kit of 12 life jackets.
