With the upcoming heat wave, I wanted to suggest making sure the beach patrol has plenty of cold water, ice, electrolyte drinks, and other essential supplies available throughout each shift. Our guards spend long hours in the sun and need to stay properly hydrated to perform at their best. It may also be helpful to schedule regular restocking of coolers during the day and, if possible, provide water ice or other cold treats on the hottest days to help keep everyone cool and maintain morale.
