Discover Boating Today

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Discover Boating. I received collateral to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

Here is my youngest pretending to drive the boat last year. Please note we did not actually let her drive.

For my family, Summer is a time to re-connect after a busy school year, hang out at the lake and really just relax with each other. This Summer I am an Ambassador for Discover Boating which is perfect because my family loves nothing more than to be out on the water in a boat, an inter-tube, swimming or even a Jet Ski.

This year, we are really excited because friends of ours just bought a boat and while we still probably rent a boat several times over the Summer like we always do, it will also be fun to go out on the lake with our friends in their new boat as well.

Boating is about making memories. It is about teaching our kids proper water safety and boating safety.

This summer we will fish, watch the sunset, swim, do a lot of cannonballs, a little diving and so much more. But most of all, we will be making memories that will last a lifetime. I want my kids to look back and remember how fun their Summers were every year.
