to completely certify participants as lifeguards. Participants must be
at least 15 years old.
 
The training session will be held from 8:30 a.m.to 5:30 p.m.on June 7,

certification. Financial assistance is available. 
 
Training will consist of shallow water, pool and special facility
lifeguarding. Individuals will learn how to anticipate, recognize and
manage incidents in a professional manner, while protecting themselves,
and how to prevent accidents, drowning, perform rescues and give
emergency care. Anyone desiring employment as a lifeguard with
