They told all the kids to get out of the pool and they served supper to the kids before they were going to leave. The lifeguards checked all the kids were out and they closed the area. This kid told his buddy hes not hungry so hes going to walk around the pool area a bit. He was walking around and he either fell in or jumped in but he didnt respond as soon as he got into the water. He didnt fling his arms or jump around. What they think was that because the area where he jumped was only 3 feet, so he bumped his head and fell unconscious as soon as he jumped in. Some saw him jump/fall in and jumped in to save him but within minutes the mouth filled with water and he couldnt breathe and he went into cardiac arrest.
Some people say that he fainted and fell in as he was walking around thats why there was no response.
But we'll never know.
You see from this story that it was no ones fault. The lifeguards didnt do anything wrong. They did have a buddy system. It was all in Hashems hands. We dont know the ways of Hashem but He has a plan that we cant understand. Theres no reason not to send your kids on their trips. We just need to daven and have Siyatta Dishmaya.
My thoughts are with the family.

What makes you think that your version of the story is correct?
I've read multiple versions (including one from misaskim which is more likely to be the real one since they were there on the scene right away) and none sound anything like this.
Please don't spread false rumors.

What the lifeguards or the sahara sam staff did wrong was that kids have access to the pools after the lifeguards left. If it would be closed, the child wouldn't be able to get there.
But we need to stop speculating...

I dont understand how someone there would even know the story.
Even if this were true, shouldnt the pools be locked off when not in use?

Why would kids be able to walk next to a pool that the lifeguards closed up? If they were eating supper, how does a kid wander off near a pool? I assume they weren't eating right near a pool. I didn't read other versions, but this sounds very strange.

I’ve heard (second hand )from a head staff member that the counselors themselves were not aware of what was going on while they were gathering their campers and leaving the premises . I also heard contradicting reports from multiple counselors and children that were there.

I care how it happened. If there was evidence of negligence that matters to me as I consider any potential future trips. I would consider that to be within the boundaries of normal hishtadlus of life.
I also find it a bit off-putting that this is in “interesting discussions”

Whatever happened, a child died. And no one working there would want that to happen again so this particular park will be one of the safest parks with very super vigilant lifeguards for years to come. I wouldnt hesitate to send kids there.

FWIW I heard almost exactly the same story from someone whose child was there. Repeating it only so we all stop blaming people.
