The Wellington Aquatics Complex will host an American Red Cross lifeguard certification class during the month of July.
Learn the skills you need to score an amazing summer job or begin a fun and exciting career as a professional lifeguard.
The class teaches entry-level participants the expertise needed to prevent, recognize and respond to aquatic emergencies, and to provide care until EMS personnel arrive.
