Body

In an ongoing effort to improve the community's water safety, the Parks and Recreation Department will offer reduced-cost lifeguard certification courses in March and May. While the average training and certification cost is around $200, City residents can take the multi-day course for $50 and leave with American Red Cross certifications in lifeguarding, CPR, AED, and first aid.

You can read more about the Lifeguard Training in the March 13 issue of City News in Brief.
