Junior Lifeguard

If you’re interested in becoming a lifeguard one day, then Junior Lifeguard Camp is for you! This enrichment camp is geared towards introducing children to the “real world” of lifeguarding and water safety. Instructors for this course are the Natatorium’s award-winning lifeguards and Ellis & Associates Lifeguard Instructors.
