Field trips are offered to expand the junior lifeguards’ experience of life guarding in different settings, including beach, and waterpark visits. Many junior lifeguards have gone on to employment as lifeguards and swim instructors. Prerequisite: Level-3 skills (see Swim Lessons Information for class descriptions).
