Joe Pool Lake Safety Alert | Dallas News

Three drownings this year at Joe Pool Lake highlight the hidden dangers of summer water fun — even strong swimmers can be caught off guard by cramps in murky, obstacle-filled waters. Officials urge everyone to stick to marked swim zones, wear life jackets (mandatory for kids under 13 and jet ski riders), and never go out alone. Alcohol? Designate a sober operator and a watchful adult. Boaters must keep safe distances, follow no-wake zones, and know which city they’re in — it could save lives. If you were born after Sept. 1, 1993, a boater safety course is required. Stay safe this summer — the water’s not as forgiving as it looks.
