Leaders The leaders program is an ideal program for young people (aged 12 to 16) to become involved in making a contribution to the pool community while having a fun summer. Are you in a program (high school or Cegep) that requires volunteer hours that must be logged and signed off on? All the responsibilities listed below can help meet your program requirements, all you need to do is speak with an executive prior to starting. Requirements and Responsibilities: Leaders must be 12 years old or completed grade six. Leaders must be willing to assist lifeguards as required Leaders will assist lifeguards during swimming lessons and Guppies Leaders will participate and assist in organising fundraisers Leaders will be assigned to canteen duty Leaders will participate in gate duty, greeting members and other clients Leaders will babysit during aquafit/yoga.

Like to swim and team sports, then WES is the spot for you! Swim Team Our goal at WES is to promote participation of all our swimmers and build team spirit. Our lifeguards are qualified to teach the swimmers proper technique to improve their strokes and times, which in turn gives the swimmers personal satisfaction. WES has an amazing tradition in swimming, as our 14 NAA championships would attest. We will be competing in the "A" Division this season. Meets are held Wednesday evenings throughout the summer. The ambience, spirit and energy of a Wednesday night meet is something special. Even if you don't participate on the swim team you should come and join the fun.
