If you trying out for the Huntington State Beach Lifeguard program, make sure you show up early. You will need to have registered for the try-outs and have time to line up with the other candidates for the initial swim. If you are going to swim in a wet suit, then it is recommended that you swim in one before you show up at the event, as the wet suit changes how you swim. Also, you will want to bring something warm to put on after the swim, as the water is cool this time of year. Many swimmers do not wear wet suits.
