Elmhurst Park District

Lifeguard training is well underway at the Park District as pool opening day approaches. Aquatics staff took a moment to reflect on their work recently, as they accepted an award from StarGuard Elite, the Park District’s partner in lifeguard training.

The Park District was thrilled to be presented with an Elite Safety Award at the Monday, April 28 Park Board Meeting from StarGuard Elite. This is the inaugural year for the award, which is being given out worldwide to lifeguard and aquatic organizations that have consistently excelled in fostering strong safety cultures, maintained high safety standards across their operations, and demonstrated a commitment to innovating training and procedures.

The Board of Park Commissioners reviewed and approved the schematic design for the new Wagner Community Center at their Monday, April 14 Park Board meeting.
