NLA Summer 2013


Welcome
Hello to all you Nojiri-ites! This season we will be offering the Learn-to-Swim, ASA Sailing course,  CPR/AED renewal and a Waterfront Lifeguard course.

2013 Lifeguarding Course
The lifeguard course is offered every other summer so the next one will be the summer of 2015. Recent Red Cross changes have allowed for electronic versions of the Lifeguard Manuals so it is now optional to purchase a manual. Resuscitation masks are, of course, necessary to purchase.

If you intend to take the Waterfront Lifeguard Course in summer of 2013 please keep in mind that you must:
  1. Pass the pre-course test before you can be fully admitted
  2. Score 80% or more on all written exams
  3. Complete the all Skills Scenario Testings (i.e. CPR/AED)
  4. Complete the Final In-Water Skills Scenarios
NLA is no longer accepting students as audits in the classes and we are no longer able to offer challenge courses. On the first day of the course, all participants must bring proof that they will be 15 by the last day of the course. This can be a Driver's License, Student ID, passport, AR, etc.

I strongly recommend that potential participants prepare themselves physically before they take the course in summer 2013.

Summer 2012

Welcome
Hello to all you Nojiri-ites! This season we will be offering Learn-to-Swim and CPR/AED renewal. We are capable of teaching a Water Safety Instructor Aide (WSIA) course but only if there is enough interest in the course.

2013 Lifeguarding Course
Next summer, 2013, we will be hosting a Waterfront Lifeguarding course. We are offering this course every other summer so the following will be the summer of 2015. Recent Red Cross changes have allowed for electronic versions of the Lifeguard Manuals so it is now optional to purchase a manual. Resuscitation masks are, of course, necessary to purchase.

If you intend to take the Waterfront Lifeguard Course in summer of 2013 please keep in mind that you must:
