Building Confidence in the Water


Every winter, during the height of the surf season, the North Shore Lifeguard Association hosts a benefit to support the Junior Lifeguard Program. This program is open to all 13-17 year olds (from around the world) and teaches them swimming and life saving skills at four beach parks islandwide. For 18 years, the City and County of Honolulu, with the support of the North Shore Lifeguard Association, has run 7 summer sessions; each one is 25 hours long. It's free, but a donation is is appreciated.
This year's fundraiser was in Waimea Valley and I was there pitching in.
