Junior Lifeguard Program

The CA swim lessons program is happy to say we have reached a point where we have almost reached pre-covid staff numbers and as part of the changes coming this fall, we plan to bring the JR guard program back as a regular program coming soon, Fall/Winter 2023. The Junior Guard program is a unique opportunity for children to learn skills, techniques and practices of actual lifeguards. They will learn and practice basic pool rescues as well as gaining a basic understanding of CPR and the how and why of pool chemical use. This class is for children age 12-15, not yet older enough to be a lifeguard, but old enough to participate safely. Swimmers should be able to swim multiple laps in a strong fashion and will be given the lifeguard swim test to see if they can pass, and what they might need to improve on.
