Lifeguard

There is a swimming pool at Camp Shehaqua which needs a certified lifeguard to supervise.

The lifeguard's assignments include:

• Bring current lifeguard, CPR certifications, and photo ID to camp. The rangers need to see it.
• The key to the pool needs to be returned to the same location after the pool is closed for the session.
• Open the pool during free time at 3:45 pm.
• Close the pool by 5:45 pm, so campers have enough time to go to dinner.
• At least one lifeguard must be at the pool at opening time. Since hikes sometimes end late, one lifeguard needs to stay at camp during the hike.
• By law, only the gate at the shallow end is allowed to be opened.
• At least one life guard needs to have a cell phone at the pool for emergencies. Have the cell phone number of the camp director in the contacts list.
• Enforce the camp rule that children less than 10 years old need to be accompanied by an adult.
• If anyone misbehaves and doesn't listen to the lifeguard, report it to the camp director.
