PIER JUMP FUNDRAISER

The Pier Jump Fundraiser is one of the biggest JG events of the summer! ALL JGs will have the opportunity to make the jump, but JG family members, siblings, and friends (over the age of 18) can donate to make the jump WITH their Junior Guard!

Donations to the Pier Jump Fundraiser will go towards the Long Beach Junior Lifeguard nonprofit, a partner of the Long Beach Fire Department Junior Lifeguard Program. The nonprofit provides support to the JG program in the way of scholarships, additional equipment, and supplies!

How to Donate

Three donation tiers:
- $25: 1 jump with your Junior Guard!
- $50: 1 jump with your Junior Guard, AND a Pier Jump t-shirt for yourself & your JG!
- $100: 1 jump with your Junior Guard, a Pier Jump t-shirt for yourself & your JG, AND photo/video footage of the jump!
  - Pier Jump shirts will also be available to purchase for $25 each.
There will be a swim test for donors on the day of your jump. Lifeguards at the swim test have the ability to cancel your pier jump if they do not feel you can swim safely back to shore.
Donations are non-refundable and non-transferable.
Sign-ups for each group will close the day before at 5pm
If you have multiple children in a single age group, you will be able to jump together. Those who have Junior Guards in multiple age groups will have to make separate donations AND participate in the swim test each day.

Safety

SAFETY is number one. There will be water support from additional lifeguards, Junior Lifeguard Cadets, and Long Beach Lifeguard Marine Safety Staff
Spectators will be asked to remain behind the designated coned area to allow enough space for participants and the JG Team
We recommend having your Junior Guard stay for the full session on this day.
