The annual San Diego Junior Lifeguard Ocean Festival wrapped up another successful event Aug. 2 in Mission Beach.
The competition began with the Willie Calabrese Memorial Run Swim Run and a 4-mile walk — a continuing celebration of life for former San Diego lifeguard Willie Calabrese, who was lost at sea in 2012.
This event was open to the public and featured special junior lifeguard guests from Tijuana and Rosarita. Junior Lifeguard events included swim, paddle relays and beach flags. All families, friends and participants enjoyed a breakfast on the beach.
