[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lifeguards rotate frequently to stay alert. I would hire 2 teens and ask them to clear the pool for 10 min each hour like a real pool. My oldest is almost 10 and a competitive swimmer - but he was a competent swimmer long before he could float or tread water. Many 10 year olds are not strong swimmers and kids that age of any skill level are not able to reliably judge when they are tired, over heated, dehydrated, or just need a break. I would not want responsibility for other people’s kids in that situation. Drowning doesn’t look like what most people think. It’s often quiet and undramatic. I would trust a trained teen with experience working at a local pool over a bunch of adults half paying attention. [/quote] Uh no. Total overkill and unnecessary for this age. [/quote]
