This new system has worked very well. General Comments: - Aquatics is blessed with a very high performing staff. Our part-time crew of lifeguards and swim instructors are dedicated, proud to be on the team, take their work and training seriously, and go above and beyond what is expected of them. This is a great base from which to innovate new program ideas and utilize our aquatics assets to serve the community. Our crew just took 4th place out of 47 municipalities at 2024 CPRA Lifeguard Games. These games are a fun competition between lifeguard teams from member municipalities in which they are judged on skills, scenario response, swimming ability and teamwork. - Our area for growth, as always, is finding and retaining a core group of staff capable of working during school hours in the fall, winter, and spring.
