    In honor of National Water Safety Month, USA Swimming has embarked on its Make a Splash Tour. Today they stopped in Lake Charles to teach kids the importance of safety in the water.

    “If we can just preach water safety, healthy respect for the water, we’ve done a good job here,” said Nathan Adrian.
