This Week’s Guard of the Week is Weston!

This is Weston’s second year working at the GMFAC, and he has made tremendous strides this summer as both a lifeguard and swim lesson instructor.

Throughout the season, Weston has demonstrated patience, confidence, and a natural ability to connect with young swimmers. He has stepped outside of his comfort zone by working with children of various ages and skill levels, gaining valuable experience as an instructor along the way.

Weston consistently helps swimmers build confidence, overcome their fears, and develop a positive attitude toward the water. His dedication to creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment has made a lasting impact on the children he teaches.

Over the past two years, Weston has grown into an amazing young man and has demonstrated maturity, leadership, patience, and a strong commitment to working with children. We are incredibly proud of the effort he has put into both teaching swim lessons and lifeguarding.

Congratulations, Weston, and thank you for everything you do for the GMFAC!
