Fun in the water starts with safety!

The Henrico County Police Division, Division of Fire, Outreach and Engagement, Recreation and Parks and YMCA of Greater Richmond are hosting a free water safety event on Saturday, July 18, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Eastern Henrico Recreation Center (1440 N. Laburnum Ave) and Frank J. Thornton YMCA Aquatic Center.

In 2025, Henrico County experienced several drownings of children. Public safety personnel came together to create the “Splash Smart Henrico!” initiative which is focused on educating our community members about water safety and the resources available in the area.
