We offer Lifeguarding and Water Safety Instructor Classes to members, nonmembers and staff.

Lifeguarding

Red Cross lifeguarding students must be at least 15 years old by the last day of class and pass a swimming skills test described below. Once students are enrolled, they’ll receive the latest science-based training from experienced instructors and develop skills they’ll use for a lifetime. Students must pass a pre-course swimming skills test prior to taking lifeguarding courses. This includes a 300-yard swim using front crawl or breaststroke, a 2-minute tread using legs only and the ability to retrieve a 10-lb dive weight from 7 ft deep, surface and swim 20 yds with the weight, using legs only and exit the pool without using a ladder within 100 seconds.
