Colour him purple

Sean Simpson from Coquitlam’s Team Shallowrama found himself coated in non-toxic, coloured cornstarch during the 15th annual Langley Lifeguard Competition held Saturday at the Walnut Grove Community Centre. The emergency first aid portion included a “Colour Me Rad-ford” feature, in which team members were bombed with colours as they made their way towards the first aid simulation beside the building. During the exercise, teams of lifeguards dealt with everything from twisted ankles, to asthma attacks, to strokes, and even a patient who “stopped breathing” and needed CPR.
