Junior Lifeguards
Sea Isle's lifeguards of tomorrow!
Sea Isle City Beach Patrol's Junior Lifeguard Program for the summer of 2013, open to male and female applicants ages 14 to 17, will be held each Tuesday and Thursday from July 23 through August 8 from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM. Selected junior guards will participate in an afternoon rowing clinic from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM. Enrollment in the program is limited to the first 40 applicants.
The program will introduce basic lifesaving skills and rescue techniques as an educational and physical training foundation for prospective beach patrol employees. Beach patrol instructors will apply principles of surf bashing, swimming, running, paddling, and ocean rowing to techniques of water rescue and beach management appropriate to age and developing skill. Junior lifeguards developing through the program to the advanced level who are sixteen years of age or older may be selected for employment with the beach patrol upon graduating the program in August.
A donation of twenty-five dollars per applicant is required to help defray the cost of pool rentals, the junior lifeguard uniform shirts that are distributed to each participant, and the end of the program barbeque.
