Photo and Caption by Ruth Ann Ruiz.So you think you can’t be a lifeguard because you need glasses? Well, think again. Santiago Zambrano is finishing his first year working for Galveston Beach Patrol as a lifeguard and he uses his prescription goggles when he needs to make a water rescue.
Why did he take the job?
“We help a lot of people and they are thankful. It makes me feel like I’m a useful person in society,” said Zambrano.
Plus, he loves the ocean. He started swimming when he was 8, and he plays a lot of water polo and squash when he’s not on the beach serving the thousands of people who come out to partake in the sand and surf.
Locally owned and operated in Texas City, Galveston County, Texas.
