Rangers at Lake Pueblo State Park say four kids and three adults had to be rescued when their boat started sinking today.

With the wind, rangers say the waves are high at the lake; water started coming over the boat, and the boat started to sink. The kids were wearing life jackets and everyone made it out of the water ok, one of the adults had to be treated for hypothermia. Rangers were also able to retrieve the boat.

Park Rangers say this serves as a good reminder to pay attention to weather conditions before you decide to go out.
