Lifeguard Information Center Lake Beach | 119 E. Canal Street Pike Lake Beach | 1009 E. Arthur Street

City of Warsaw Parks & Recreation | warsaw.in.gov/parks | (574) 372-9554

The Parks Department assigns lifeguards to oversee the beaches from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend as staffing allows. Lifeguard shifts generally run seven days a week from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. However, as staffing levels fluctuate throughout the season and towards its conclusion, lifeguards may be assigned to only one lake or may be scheduled exclusively on weekends.

5

Lifeguards will not be on duty if the temperature is below 70 degrees. In the event of approaching inclement weather, a light strobe and siren will sound at both beaches. We ask that park patrons clear the beach and seek shelter should this occur. We also kindly request our beach-goers to respect any requests or commands given by our lifeguards. Safety is our #1 concern, and abuse and/or belligerent behavior toward any member of our Parks staff will not be tolerated.

When lifeguards are not on duty, Center Lake Beach and Pike Lake Beach are swim at your own risk.

Self-Service Equipment Rentals Kayaks & Paddle Boards available at these locations:

Center Lake Beach | 119 E. Canal Street 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Cost | $15 for 1 hour or $40 for 4 hours

You can find kayaks and paddle boards at both beaches. Every rental includes the kayak or paddle board, a paddle, and a life jacket. The kiosk is powered by the Rent.Fun app, so to save yourself time, find the app in your phone’s app store and download it before you go. Rentals require the use of a credit or debit card.
