As a lifeguard I have made many new friends and gained valuable teamwork skills. I am entrusted with keeping others safe, and given the opportunity to teach and support kids with learning important life skills in swimming. It is incredibly rewarding to see them progress and gain confidence in the water. I enjoy meeting others in the community as well as participating in a fun and social work environment!
