Catalina Beach Club
Lifeguard Crew is Outstanding
On July 4th there was a short afternoon downpour. Families left the beach area. Many sheltered in their covered cabanas or in the cafeteria inner and outer covered areas.
When the rain stopped the weather returned to a day that beckoned children & adults into the water. The water they headed for was the Catalina Pool.
The pool always seems to have a good number of participants at any given time of day. The two lifeguards on their stands are always enough to observe and make everyone feel safe. One focuses more on the swim lane and diving area. The other on the entry steps on both sides of the sallow end of the pool and the areas under 5 feet deep.
On the afternoon of July 4th as the rain dissipated quickly, the massive number of pool participants was at a level above any I can ever recall. The lifeguard crew in clearly an outstanding move to ensure our safety added a third lifeguard working the side of the pool where the entry steps were farther away from the Lifeguard Stand responsible for this area. The crew members continued this addition rotation of staff for the rest of a very active afternoon at the Catalina Swimming Pool.
As a grandparent today, and a former pool lifeguard in my youth, I want to publicly acknowledge the outstanding performance of the Lifeguard Crew at the Catalina Beach Club in Atlantic Beach, NY
Sincerely,
