With the summer months approaching, it is important to take
action to stay safe in the sun. Visitors to Coconut Cove Waterpark will now have
access to sun protection by way of this sunscreen dispenser, free of charge.
“While we push hard for people to get outdoors and be active,
we want them to be sun safe as well,” said Eric Call, Director of the Palm Beach
County Parks and Recreation Department.
This partnership between the Palm
Beach County Parks and Recreation Department and the Richard David Kann Melanoma
Foundation helps promote sun safety and provide protection against the
potentially deadly effects of overexposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays.
