Will Rogers State Beach, Lifeguard Tower #15
The L.A. County Fire Dept. Lifeguard Academy Candidates graduating on the date number sixty-nine (69). One Hundred Fifty qualified at the time of the rookie swim this past October 2013. After oral interviews, background checks, plus rookie school, the final number was whittled down to just below seventy.
We began our coverage at approximately 7:30 a.m. this morning and we arrived in time to snap a few photos of the venue and to catch the rookies marching down to the beach to where the ceremony would take place at 9 a.m.
Enjoy!
