lessons are held In the mornings during the week When lessons are in progress a I a pool free swimmers are not allowed The same goes or our section of the lake We try to leave an area open for swimmers and we do apologize when we restrict swimmers during lessons But until the time comes that Acton has a pool beach Is the only place which will facilitate an in swim program During the aflernoons lifeguards arc on duty We arc employed a government grant by the Town of Hills to promote and enforce water safety Yes it is a public beach but like officers of the law we are there for the safety of the public for everyone The rule thai seems to affect everyone is that one must stay inside the buoyed area There are two reasons The first is the danger The seaweed is bad this year It is up to the surface If someone gels caught in it Its game over The second is distraction Us like watching over two children one Is silling on floor quietly while the other is pulling It hand In boiling water Which one do you watch Only one It he same at the beach Eyes are glued on one in a danger area If there are SO swimmers In the water and one Is distracting the guard whal happens to the other We arc there to help those in need of it but the first duty of a lifeguard Is prevent water accidents from hap I hope this has helped enlighten those who have misunderstood us Last week marked an
