Train with the Team

Interested in becoming a lifeguard but not sure you have the skills?  Attend our monthly training to get some hands-on practice with our team.  The team practices once a month to ensure we can perform when needed in an emergency.  We will demonstrate all of the lifeguarding skills and then you can practice them with us.  No pressure-just a fun relaxed environment to see if you can become a lifeguard. Snacks will be provided.
