This is not a new MB class for Swimming or Lifesaving. You must already have half or more of the requirements completed on your blue card.
You must send an email to the instructor (Rush Kester; rwkester@aol.com) indicating which MB you are completing and a list of your missing requirements.
Please review those requirements you are missing and be prepared to demontrate/discuss them.

- Swimming 4a&b requires a buddy to act as your victim
- Lifesaving 4,5,8,11,12,13,15 require a buddy you are comfortable being in close contact with to act as your victim
- Lifesaving 9 requires clothes you can wear over your swimsuit & remove quickly
