A Pittsburgh Pirates fan practices wearing a life jacket at an interactive booth while a park ranger times him at a booth hosted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District during a Water Safety Night celebration at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, May 11, 2024. The Pittsburgh District partnered with the Pittsburgh Pirates to host an evening dedicated to water safety. Before the game, members of the Pittsburgh District and other waterway partners set up display booths and interactive games on Federal Street to promote life jackets, water safety and safe boating practices to the public. The Pittsburgh District participated in the first pitch and provided a color guard team to present the colors during the national anthem. Bobber the Water Safety Dog attended the game and interacted with fans. The first 20,000 fans who entered the stadium received a free shirt promoting the “Wear It” Safe Boating Campaign.
