CBSC offers Red Cross lifesaving training. All Red Cross courses are one month long, 4 days per week (Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri). Please note that all courses are run depending on sufficient numbers of registrants. We recommend that anyone planning to register for Bronze Star take Junior Lifeguard Club instead, and wait until they are old enough to take Bronze Medallion. Testing is outside of regular class time at the end of the month. Participants must be required age by test date. Coaches: Sarah Armstrong and Emma Waterman
