You are invited to take part in the Elise Cerami Memorial Scholarship for a sponsored American Red Cross Lifeguard Ceritification. Your participation in the Lifeguard Certification Scholarship is voluntary. The application is due by March 25, 2018. The length of time that you will need to complete the application will be primarily dependent on your essay(s), signed consent/reference, and uploaded attachments. Upon a successful submission of your application, you will receive an acknowledgement email from Swim4Elise. Your submission will be reviewed anonymously by the Swim4Elise Board of Directors. Recipients will be recognized at the Run4Elise and will be contacted 1-2 weeks prior to the event. Recipients will then select the date of their class with North Star ASI.

  • A digital copy of your fully completed Lifeguard Nomination Form
  • A digital copy of your unofficial academic transcript (ages 15-18)
  • A digital copy of your 500 Free time from the official USA Swimming Times
