Lake Wales Family Recreation Center Opens Registration For Jr. Lifeguard Course

Date:

The Lake Wales Family Recreation Center has opened registration for their Red Cross’s Jr. Lifeguarding course. Here in Florida, Lifeguards play an integral part in keeping pools and other waterfronts safe.

This course is tailored for youth from the ages of 11-14 that may aspire to a career in Lifeguarding or virtually any other role as a first responder. Participants will learn the foundations of activating an emergency action plan and following through with basic life support skills.

Upon registering, participants will receive a Jr. Lifeguard t-shirt, pocket mask, rescue pack, and be given the opportunity to shadow a Lifeguard while the pool is in operation.

The class begins in December. Register your future Lifeguard at the link here: https://secure.rec1.com/FL/lake-wales-fl/catalog?filter=c2VhcmNoPTMzMzA0MTA=
