Purpose:
1. My motivation to communicate in this situation is to inform individuals of the dangers of rip currents.
2. I hope that my audience will have a better understanding of beach saftey and will be more careful when they go swimming in the ocean.
3. I want to communicate this with others because I worked as a beach lifeguard all summer. I know from first hand experience how unaware most people are of the dangers of rip currents.
4. The best possible outcome for this communication would be less rescues on behalf of rip currents this coming year.
