WHAT TO EXPECT

Class format: The instructor will follow the American Red Cross Lifeguard Training Course. This course includes both classroom work and physical training. You can expect approximately 1/2 of the time spent on land and 1/2 of the time in the water each day. 

Restrooms will be available for participant use throughout the program. 

Accessibility: To participate in the class, participants must be able to pass the physical pre-test described below. To receive certification, participants must be able to meet the requirements of all physical and written tests. Reasonable accommodations can be made as long as participants demonstrate competency in the necessary knowledge & skill.s 

Age requirements: To participate in the class, participants must be at least 15 years old by the first day of class.

Prerequisite test: Before the beginning of instruction, we will meet for a prerequisite swim test to ensure your competency in the water. The prerequisite test includes the following parts:

  • Swim 300 yards, continuously demonstrating breath control and rhythmic breathing. Candidates may swim using the front crawl, breaststroke or a combination of both, but swimming on the back or side is not allowed. Swim goggles may be used.
  • Tread water for 2 minutes, using only the legs. Candidates should place their hands under the armpits.
  • Complete a timed event within 1 minute and 40 seconds: Starting in the water, swim 20 yards. Swim goggles are not allowed. Surface dive, feet-first or headfirst, to a depth of 7 to 10 feet to retrieve a 10-pound object. Return to the surface and swim 20 yards on the back to return to the starting point with both hands holding the object and keeping the face at or near the surface in order to breathe (or to get a breath). Exit the water without using a ladder or steps.
