Great job to all our personnel on the beach and in the water!
It’s still perfect beach weather today, if you’re planning on hitting the beach be sure to;
• Swim, Body Board, and Surf near an open lifeguard tower.
• Check in with the lifeguard for ocean conditions and hazards.
• Practice good judgement; swim and surf within your abilities.
