Junior Lifeguard Program: Registration Open

Water-lovers, age 12–15, discover what it takes to become a lifeguard, while having fun in the sun! The program runs July 7 - Aug. 1, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at Wilson Park Pool. To qualify for the program, youths must pass a swim test (50-meter swim in under 1 minute 15 seconds and 2-minute tread in the deep end of the pool). If a youth does not pass the test, the registration fee will be refunded. Scholarships are available.
