The busy Memorial Day weekend is right
around the corner and that means thousands of people will flock to the
beach for fun in the sun. Volusia County’s Beach Patrol will be out in
full force staffing the lifeguard towers and doing everything they can
to keep beachgoers safe. If you’re going to the beach there are some
common sense things you should do to keep you and your loved ones safe.
This week, Volusia Magazine, the county’s
weekly public information television program, looks at beach safety for
the holiday weekend. The in-depth interview guest is Beach Patrol
Captain Tammy Marris. The 30-minute program also includes county news of
the week, community interest features, and the latest actions of the
Volusia County Council.
Volusia Magazine airs Sunday (May 20) at
5 p.m. and repeats Monday (May 21) at 7:30 p.m. on WDSC-TV15. To watch
channel 15, turn your television to UHF channel 15 or consult your cable
television listings. All cable television stations in Volusia County
carry WDSC TV-15.
