LIFEGUARD TRAINING COURSES
The purpose of the American Red Cross Lifeguarding course is to teach participants the knowledge and skills needed to prevent and respond to aquatic emergencies. The course content and activities prepare participants to recognize and respond quickly and effectively to emergencies and prevent drownings and injuries. This course does not include any review of swimming skills. We offer private swim lessons for those who feel they need a refresher of the skills required to participate in the ARC Lifeguard program.
