Habormaster Department participates in life jacket loaner program for kids
The Wareham Harbormaster Department is participating in the BoatU.S. Foundations Life Jacket Loaner Program for Kids. The program allows boaters to borrow a child’s life jacket for the day or a weekend, at no charge. Once finished boaters can return the jackets.
If you would like to borrow a jacket, stop by the Wareham Harbormaster’s seasonal office located on the Onset Pier or call (508) 295-8160 to learn more about the department’s participation in the program.
There are more than 500 BoatU.S. Foundation Life Jacket Loaner sites located all over the country. Combined, these sites loan out jackets more than 90,000 times a year. The BoatU.S. Foundation Life Jacket Loaner program was launched in 1997 and was the first program of its kind in the United States.
