Syracuse pools are filling with people trying to stay cool, making the safety of beginning swimmers a concern for parents. A regular visitor to Thornden Park pool in Syracuse, Susanne Bang, says small precautions can cut back on pool emergencies, "I mean they can't dive, there are certain places they can't jump and what not, but if you're talking about pleasing that many people to keep them safe, I don't have a problem with those rules." Bang describes these concerns while never taking her eyes off her two young sons.
Each of Bang's three children has passed Thornden pool's swimming test and are allowed to swim without her there, but she still goes to put her mind at ease. As her three children eagerly wait to jump back in the pool, she makes them wait till she can also watch them.
