DATE: June 16, 1998
SUB J: 1998 Lifeguard Olympics, Lake Ann Park
John Raby with Minnetonka Community Education and Services would like to
hold their Annual Lifeguard Olympics at Lake Ann of Sunday, August 2, from
8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
The Lifeguard Olympics was developed as a competition between lifeguard teams
throughout the state. The competition events include:
Kayak Exhibition
Beach Flags
Rescue Board Obstacle Course
Ring Buoy Toss
Swim Extension Relay
Rowing Obstacle Course
Rear Approach Relay
Tug-O-War
CPR/First Aid Scenario
Sweatshirt Relay
There will be lifeguards on duty at the beach if the general public would like to
swim during this time. Past Lifeguard Olympics have been very successful and it
is great exposure for Lake Ann Park.
It is staff's recommendation that the Park and Recreation Commission approve
Minnetonka Community Education and Services' request to host the annual
Lifeguard Olympics at Lake Ann Park on Sunday, August 2, 1998.
