Loan A Life Jacket – Available Beginning Memorial Day Weekend
The Grapevine Fire Department implemented the Loan a Life Jacket program, making life jackets available to those who visit Grapevine Lake without this life-saving tool. This program was implemented in an effort to educate and prevent loss of life and is in memory of James McKenzie, a Grapevine Firefighter who was enjoying a day at Grapevine Lake with his family and tragically drowned in July of 2016. Each of the City managed boat ramps in the aforementioned has a life jacket station/tree with life jackets for children and adults. These life jackets are to be borrowed and worn while on, in, or near Grapevine Lake - and returned before leaving the boat ramp area(s).
Available in sizes for children and adults, our life jacket trees are maintained by the Grapevine Fire Department and are located at the following Lake Park locations:
- Lakeview Park, 2100 Lakeview Drive
- Meadowmere Park, 3000 Meadowmere Lane
- Oak Grove, 2520 Oak Grove Loop South
- Rockledge Park, 3600 Pilot Point
- Sand Bass Point, Sand Bass Drive
- Vineyards Campground & Cabins, 1501 North Dooley Street (for use by registered Campground guests)
Remember to BORROW, SURVIVE, and RETURN these life jackets so others may enjoy a safe day at the lake. View additional information regarding the Loan a Life Jacket Program at bit.ly/3aVFbE3.
