Junior Guard season is just a few months away and now is a great time to help your kids get in shape and ready for try-outs. Enrollment is now open for the Lucky Duck Swim Team Junior Lifeguard Conditioning Program. Space is limited and are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.

*Swim times are determined by the age group a child will be participating in during the program, NOT the current age of the applicant. For example, if an applicant is 11 years old on the date of the tryout, but will turn 12 on or before July 1st, they are considered a “B”, not a “C”, and must pass the required “B” swim time.
