2021 SPRING OPTIONS TO RECERT YOUR RED CROSS LIFEGUARDING CERTIFICATIONÂ
Spring Lifeguard Recertification Class Registration Open
The class is for recertification only.
This course is a two date recertification class that will teach the new skills, as well as review old skills, necessary for a student to lifeguard at public and private pools. Students must attend the entire class, pass all tests, and competently perform the required skills in order to receive certification at the end of the course. Payment and attendance does not guarantee recertification. This new course offered through the American Red Cross includes Lifeguarding, first aid, CPR and AED training for professional rescuers. If a student passes the course, they will be recertified for two years.
Classes will take place in the classroom and pool at the Wilson High School Snyder Natatorium. Necessary COVID and physical distancing protocol will be followed. Students should be prepared for class with their lifeguard manual, pocket mask, writing implement, swimsuit, and towel (for the pool portion). Anyone who does not have the current manuals may download them by visiting the following links:
- Lifeguard Manual
