HR 266 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

A resolution to declare May 20-27, 2024, as Michigan Beach Safety Week in the state of Michigan.

This resolution designates the week of May 20 to 27, 2024, as Michigan Beach Safety Week to highlight safety measures for visitors to the state's lakes and beaches. The bill serves as a public awareness campaign encouraging people to follow specific safety guidelines, such as learning to swim, avoiding alcohol near water, and heeding warning signs. By formally declaring this week, the legislature aims to remind residents and tourists about potential aquatic hazards like rip currents before the summer season begins. The measure does not create new laws or funding but rather promotes existing safety practices through an official state proclamation.
