New Zealand Water Safety Conference 2011 - 2011 Conference Programme Confirmed

Water: Our Fatal Attraction, the New Zealand Water Safety Conference 2011 Programme has been posted on line at www.watersafety2011.org.nz

The programme for Water: Our Fatal Attraction includes a select line up of presenters and guarantees a memorable and valuable experience for delegates. I urge you to not miss this chance to be involved with New Zealand’s only dedicated water safety conference.

The programme for 2011 is impressive. Our line up of Key Note speakers will include:

• Laurie Lawrence - readily recognised in both competitive and education swimming circles as a leader, innovator and extremely talented motivator.
• Dr Dave Jenkins – founder of SurfAid International and recently returned from wowing the audiences at the World Conference on Drowning Prevention 2011 held in Vietnam.
• Jeffery Hoedt - Chief of the Boating Safety Division, United States Coastguard.
• Mike Espino - the Aquatics Safety and Risk Specialist for the YMCA of America.

This is just a sample of what’s on offer at the New Zealand Water Safety Conference 2011; further information on additional key note and break out presenters is detailed on the conference web site: www.watersafety2011.org.nz.

Ensure you and other members of your organisation seize this opportunity – early bird registrations offer a generous 20% discount on fees but close on 1 September.
