As our season comes to an end, we’ve been asking our guards to share their fall plans, favourite memories from the summer, and if they’ll be joining us again next year!
Here are the next two responses:
Kennedi:
In the fall I plan to go into my grade 12 year at NWCS. My favourite part of working at the pool was getting to teach swimming lessons. I have not decided if I will be returning back to the pool next year
Brooklyn Shepherd:
This fall, I’ll be moving to Melfort and starting Grade 11 at a new school. I’m also hoping to continue lifeguarding through the winter, staying active and involved in something I enjoy as I settle into this next chapter. My favorite part about working at the pool is getting to see both new and familiar faces every day it creates such a fun and welcoming environment. I really enjoy being around my coworkers, and the job is a great way to get me out of the house and trying new things. I even taught aquasize for the first time, and even though I didn’t think I’d like it at first, I actually ended up really enjoying it! I'm hoping to come back to the pool next year, but with the move and everything changing, I’ll just have to see where life takes me. If things work out, I’d love to return it’s been such a great experience. Honestly, if I don’t end up coming back, I’m not even sure what I’d do because it’s become such a big part of my routine and something I really enjoy.
🌟 Good luck to both of you—we hope to see you back at the pool next summer!
