For the second year in a row, Dallas' own Bahama Beach Waterpark receives the prestigious Platinum International Aquatic Safety Award.

“This is a very prestigious award and we are honored to receive such distinction,” said Willis Winters, Director of the Dallas Park and Recreation. “Bahama Beach consistently exceeds industry standards in risk management and is the model when it comes to safety excellence.”

International Aquatic Safety Awards are conferred to deserving aquatic facilities by Jeff Ellis & Associates, Inc. - International Aquatic Safety and Risk Management Consultants.

“It is apparent that the entire staff embodies the idea of setting the standard in aquatic safety and swimmers who frequent this aquatic facility are afforded the highest degree of swimmer protection currently available for the aquatic industry,” said Richard A. Carroll, Jeff Ellis & Associates, Inc. Senior Vice President and COO.

International Aquatic Safety Awards are presented annually to participants in E&A's Comprehensive Aquatic Risk Management Program (CARMP) and are based on the results of multiple random unannounced Aquatic Facility Operational Safety Audits throughout the year.
