Open Water Junior Lifeguard Camps 2011
The Sonoma County Regional Parks, Santa Rosa Recreation and Parks and the American Red Cross are joining together to offer 3 Junior Lifeguard Camps at Spring Lake during the Summer of 2011. The big news is the Environmental Junior Lifeguard Camp which is offered June 13th -June 17th. This camp will offer the same open water lifeguarding skills as the other camps, but will also focus on the environment, specifically around our open water swim areas. We are all incredibly excited about adding an additional camp and can’t wait to see you at the beach!
