Personal Narrative: The Grants Pass Family

The Grants Pass Family Y.M.C.A.: I worked here for 3 1/2 years. I not only survellienced the pool water but helped those in need by assisting them from getting in and out of the pool as well if they needed any help walking to the bathrooom etc. For special events, I watched physically and mentally disabled, patrons to help them remain safe within a designated area. Otherwise, on a regular day basis I watched people of all ages and educated them on pool safety. During my time there I had many interactions with all age groups and learned social skills from from daily communications with patrons, advisors, and other employees. The most vital thing was the other lifeguards and I worked as a team to better the lives around us.
