Build confidence in and around the water while learning essential lifesaving skills! This beginner-friendly camp is designed for new swimmers who want to feel more comfortable in open water. Spend the week with expert open-water lifeguards practicing basic swimming and lifeguarding techniques, including tube rescues, boating safety, and first aid. You’ll also learn CPR and how to use an AED. Camp activities include swimming, time on the inflatable Water Park, and a final friendly competition to showcase your new skills. Open to youth ages 10 to 13 at the time of participation. Participants should be comfortable in shallow water but do not need prior swimming experience. Camps will happen rain or shine, but may be canceled during heavy rains, heavy smoke, or extreme temperatures. Please inform us of any accessibility needs ahead of time so we can best support your camper. Each child may be registered for only one Junior Lifeguards session this summer.
