County's vaunted Ocean Lifeguard Division. After a grueling 10-week academy, during which candidates leap off piers, dive from moving Baywatch rescue boats, and learn the skills to be a good ocean lifeguard, Deuel graduated last spring and started patrolling the county's 72 miles of coastline. Join us to discuss beach safety, what it's like to be a lifeguard, and what the county is doing to keep the ocean a fun place for everyone.
