This program has been cancelled.
Rookie/Ranger Patrol
Kids learn attitudes and skills that could one day save a life; their life, or someone else's along with a heavy emphasis on perfecting basic strokes. The JUNIOR Junior Lifeguard Club (JLC) is designed to let kids participate in activities similar to those of real lifeguards in a safe, fun and controlled setting. But just as important, kids experience teamwork and a sense of belonging. The Junior Lifeguard Club is a place for kids to:
- Learn about lifesaving and lifeguarding.
- Enjoy friendly competition through the Lifesaving Sport
- Challenge themselves to aim for personal bests.
- Hang out, make friends, have a great time!
The Junior Lifeguard Club is a unique program formatted to follow the club/coach approach versus the swimming lesson/instructor format. Candidates are encouraged to set long-term goals and short-term personal best achievements.
Candidates can also earn their Rookie, Ranger and Star Patrol awards!
*Ages 7-13 (Those with advanced swimming ability should speak to the Aquatic Supervisor about an assessment and the possibility of swimming with the Senior JLC group).
