Second Annual "International Lifeguard Appreciation Day" Takes Place July 31, 2021

New Contest Awards “Hero Spot” on the Official International Lifeguard Appreciation Day Website

Launched in 2020 as a way to boost awareness of the hard work aquatics facilities and lifeguards do to offer recreation and exercise to a pandemic-weary public, Ellis & Associates (E&A) celebrates the second annual International Lifeguard Appreciation Day with a new contest.

In partnership with aquatic facilities around the globe, E&A will be awarding a yearlong spot on the official International Lifeguard Appreciation Day website and a swag bag from Water Safety Products to the winning facility. The contest is open to all aquatic facilities and easy entry instructions can be found on the official website.

Any pool or aquatic facility operator can visit the official International Lifeguard Appreciation Day website to find downloadable graphics and ideas for recognizing their lifeguards and aquatics staff.
