Info: This is a competition for Park and Recreation Agency lifeguards & junior lifeguards. Teams of 4 (2 male and 2 female or 1 male and 3 female) will compete in a series of events to test their lifeguard skills, strength, speed, endurance and their ability to work as a team. This is a friendly competition that encourages each guard to rise to challenges, practice their craft, learn from other guards and have fun.
In addition to the contestants, each team should also provide a volunteer judge/timer along with a victim to assist with the running of the event. Teams with less than four lifeguards will require guards to compete twice in the same relay events. Otherwise smaller teams will not receive any special consideration in entering events. To represent a Park and Recreation Agency, an individual must have worked for that agency as a lifeguard, for at least 40 hours between May 24 and July 25th, 2008.
