Lifeguard hours changing at Delaware beaches

DOVER, DELAWARE (8/18/2015)  Weekday lifeguard hours will be reduced at two Delaware State Park beaches starting Monday.

The cutbacks are due to lifeguards leaving the area to return to school and sports camps, according to the Division of Parks and Recreation.

The Tower Road area at Delaware Seashore State Park and the Fenwick Lot area at Fenwick Island State Park will be unguarded except on weekends.

Other areas will remain guarded from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day through Labor Day but with fewer lifeguards and reduced swimming areas.
