Oklahoma Officials Stress Boater Safety, Importance Of Life Jackets

It's casual Friday for a lot of business across Green Country, but instead of dressing down, some dressed up to save lives.

All U.S. Army Corps of Engineers employees wore life jackets to work for Ready, Set, Wear It.

It's the kick off of National Boating Safety Week.

It’s a week meant to save lives by reminding folks to always wear a life jacket when they're on the water.

Officials said it's like wearing a seat belt: You don't wait until you're about to crash to put on your belt.
