RED CROSS LIFEGUARD INSTRUCTION
All Lifeguard and CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer courses are sponsored by the American Red Cross and meet all Anne Arundel County requirements. Red Cross Lifeguard Certification is good for two years and is transferable between counties and states.
Please note: Lifeguards must be 16 to obtain an Anne Arundel County Lifeguard license.
By registering for an aquatics class, you certify that you have read, understood, and agreed to our registration policies and waivers, which can be found here.
Refunds are not given unless a session is cancelled. Credits for medical conditions are considered and are only valid 6 months from the issue date. Individual classes cancelled due to inclement weather or pool maintenance/repair will be rescheduled.
The Severna Park Community Center will charge an annual registration fee of $25 per person (maximum of $50 per family), to help with system upgrades and ongoing building maintenance & repairs. The fee will be charged just one time annually, and will be good for 12 months from the date paid. Following the emergency pool renovations last month, we realize that at twenty-five years old, the possibility of repairs, emergency or other, are going to increase. Thank you for helping us to keep this center a place where you can safely gather, play, grow, and thrive!
