The Junior Lifeguard Program offers step-by-step skill development with a safety-first motto based on the Red Cross GuardStart course.

We take pride in offering a variety of challenging activities in a fun atmosphere designed for the youth ages 11-14.

The students will receive instruction in water safety, swimming instruction, teamwork, leadership skills, Life guarding skills, First Aid Training, CPR instruction, and AED training.

The class includes a whistle with lanyard and a Guard Start manual.


At successful completion of the class the students will receive an American Red Cross certification in Guard Start.
