Calhoun County Sheriff's Office Marine Patrol Coordinator, Deputy Matthew Schimmel, joins Community Matters to offer input after multiple drownings and incidents on state waterways.

A Detroit Free Press report quoted a Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project tally at 31 great lakes drownings shortly after Independence Day 2025.

Deputy Schimmel discusses water safety as it relates to both swimming and boating - and even discusses how a grant allows deputies to distribute free personal flotation devices.
