Boating Safety Start Date: Immediately End Date: NONE Contact: Tim Spice, 512-389-8141 Boating Safety It's boating season, and time to keep safety in mind. Before you set out: * Take a boater safety course from Texas Parks and Wildlife. * Ensure everyone on your boat wears a lifejacket at all times. * File a float plan that includes where you will be, what time you will return, and who is on the boat with you; it will help others to locate you should you run into problems. To locate a boater safety course near you, log onto the Parks and Wildlife website: www.tpwd.state.tx.us.
