Castaic Lake is one of three freshwater lakes in Los Angeles County that will reopen for the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation Junior Lake Lifeguard Program this summer.
Water safety, first aid, CPR, rescue skills with paddleboards and rescue cans are on the list of lessons for youth ages 9 through 17 who will participate in the co-ed program.
“Our incredible trained staff will ensure youth participants gain unique experiences and essential water safety knowledge that can be used throughout their lives, whether in situations helping others or in their careers as lifeguards,” said Norma E. García-González, director of county Parks and Recreation, in a prepared statement.
