Aquatics has met Its firet objective by maintaining core services at our nine (9) pool facilities and ten (10) beach parks. Pool closures were kept to a minimum but did occur occasionally due to repair, scheduled maintenance, competitions and shortage of staff. 2 To advertise pool schedules and services four (4) times per year in quarterly program gudes and announcements through the radio and the newspaper Quarterly program guides advertising pool schedules, programs and beach operations have been produced and distributed in a timely manner. 3 To provide American Red Cross classes to the general public and staff as follows • One (1) Water Safety Instructor (WSI) class in West Hawaii • One (1) Water Safety Instructor (WSI) class in East Hawaii. • Two (2) Lifeguard Training (LGT) classes per year at each of our nine (9) pools • Four (4) Standard First AidlCardiopulmonary Resuscitation (SFAICPR) classes per year at each of our nine (9) pools. Senior Lifeguards at our nine pool facilities were not able to meet our requirement of teaching two (2) lifeguard training and four (4) CPR/Standard Firet Aid classes, since the fiscal year began. This requirement must be re- examined and modified. This objective could be too optimistic given the workload and logistics of organizing classes. 4.
