Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission, the U.S. Coast Guard and Dairy Queen are hosting a prize program for kids who wear life jackets while boating this summer.
Officers patrolling Washington's waterways would hand out coupons for a free Dairy Queen ice-cream cone to kids younger than 16 if they are spotted wearing a life jacket when out on a boat.
On weekends and holidays during the summer, state park rangers, county and even city marine patrols, state Fish and Wildlife officers and U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary members would be on the lookout for safe kid boaters.
All states now need children 12 years and younger to wear life jackets while boating. Details: www.parks.wa.gov/boating.
