Description: Attention all current lifeguards! The American Red Cross has extended grace periods for most certifications but if you let it lapse you will need to retake the entire course. You must be able to swim 300 yards continuously demonstrating breath control and rhythmic breathing, tread water for 2 minutes using only the legs, and complete a timed event. The timed event involves retrieving a brick in deep water and swimming it to a designated spot within 1 minute, 40 seconds. This mandatory pre-requisite testing will occur on the first day of class. Anyone who fails the swim test will receive a refund of one half their registration fee. Students will review all skills and then must successfully demonstrate proper techniques and pass the written exams to obtain recertification. Bring your swimsuit to every class. Instructor: Kathy Wulfers.
