The event included free swimming lessons, food and a movie. You could also drive through, and get treats, goodies and water safety information. It was a fun event, but with a serious purpose. "Here in Louisiana there is water everywhere. You know as we've seen this past week with the water. There was a lot of flooding," says Sarah Landreneau of Lafayette Aquatics. "There's lakes, there's rivers, there's pools and its just so important for us to be educated about water safety."
