Syllabus
The trial court did not err in granting summary judgment in favor of appellee, a non-denominational church based in Columbus. Appellant's negligent training claim relating to a tragic open water drowning during a church organized trip to North Carolina failed as a matter of law because appellee owed no duty to protect the decedent from the hazards of open water swimming through its training of the church group leaders. Judgment affirmed.
Judges: Luper Schuster
