| Guards gather at the Relay For Life event |
Shore Beach Service lifeguards are certified in lifesaving, CPR, and first aid. Most are college students from across the country and around the world. In addition to their certifications, the guards participate in weekly training sessions that prepare them for the job and our lifeguard competition held annually on Hilton Head. Our competition, which consists of various swimming and running events, is used to select our team to send to the South Atlantic Lifesaving Association's competition.
A summer working for Shore Beach Service is not only about work and training. This May for the third year, Shore Beach Service participated in the "Relay for Life." The lifeguards staffed a both teaching beach safety. Shore's staff had a great time raising money for Cancer research, and hope to do it again next year.

Shore lifeguards also participate in several social events. Restaurants, including Casey's, Remy's, Black Marlin, and Marley's have hosted parties to welcome the guards to the island. A local church sponsors several
cookouts for the guards every year. After teams are picked for competition, team captains arrange events to promote team camaraderie, such as barbeques, softball games, parties at local restaurants, and bowling competitions.
Everyone looks forward to Shore's biggest social event of the year, the Employee Appreciation Party (sometimes jokingly called Shore Prom). The gathering took place at Bistro Mezzaluna, were everyone dined on fantastic Italian cuisine.
