About This Activity

Description

We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Friday, August 4, 2023.

The Junior Lifeguard Program offers students ages nine to seventeen instruction in lifeguard rescue techniques, first aid, ocean sports, physical conditioning and marine ecology. Participants also have the opportunity to become CPR certified. This program gives students the experience they need for future careers as lifeguards or in various public service professions.

Field trips and competitions highlight the six-week course. All aspects of beach activity will be explored from beach running to skin diving. The program is presented in a manner that will enable each student to participate to the best of his or her abilities while learning new skills. We end each summer with the annual Ironguard event—a four mile run and two mile swim that shows students the progress they have made throughout the summer.

Students who did not participate in the program the previous summer are required to pass the swim test before being accepted into the program. New Junior Lifeguards must be able to swim 100 yards in less than two minutes in order to qualify. No Exceptions. Applications are to be submitted after successfully completing the swim test.
