A reminder to be safe on the water this weekend from the Washoe Sheriff: “Memorial Day weekend typically brings out the boats. A day on the water is a lot of fun, but please don’t let it turn tragic. Remember that alcohol and boats do not mix. Springtime can also bring on sudden changes in the weather, so do your part to stay safe and prepared. For our part, the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Marine 9 crew, with the help of Washoe County Sheriff’s - Hasty Team volunteers, performed safety and rescue exercises in preparation for the summer season. We always stay prepared but are happiest when we do not have to intervene or execute these measures with the public. Please stay safe and enjoy the Memorial Day weekend, Washoe! #boatsafety #rescue #WCSO #memorialweekend #Marine9 #ProudSheriff” #washoecounty #nevada
