Looking for a new swimsuit this summer? Go for the bright colors, patterns, and neons!
Brighter colors are not only easier to spot outside of the water but inside of the water too, especially in the case of a submersion.
Blues, blacks, and other dark colors can become hard to see with water distortion – making it especially challenging to discern if someone is in need of emergency attention.

Yesterday, our members had the opportunity to conduct two very engaging "Stop the Bleed" training sessions. This training is aimed at equipping the attendees with life-saving skills.
Participants learned how to recognize life-threatening bleeding, apply direct pressure, use tourniquets effectively, and manage other bleeding control techniques. With hands-on practice and guidance, the trainings emphasized the importance of quick and effective action in emergencies that require bleeding control.
We would like to thank Camp Woodie and the Wyboo Community Center for inviting us to instruct these classes! We hope you all gained the knowledge needed in case you ever have to use these skills.
We would also like to thank our members for your dedication to making our community safer. Together, we can save lives!

Heading to the pool or beach this summer? Here’s why you should always swim near a lifeguard! 🏊♀️
Lifeguards are critically important for your safety. They are highly trained and skilled professionals who specialize in water rescue, CPR, and first aid.
In an emergency, every second counts, and lifeguards are equipped to provide immediate assistance, potentially saving lives and preventing serious injuries.
By swimming near a lifeguard, you ensure that expert help is readily available if needed. Whether it’s a strong current at the beach or an incident at the pool, lifeguards are your first line of defense.
Stay safe and enjoy the water with confidence, knowing a lifeguard is on duty!
