LAKEWOOD, Ohio — It started out as a day of fun in the sun at the Charles A.

Lifeguard Jack Viglianco, 15, told WJW, "I heard like a 'Help, ah,' kind of thing.

And I looked over and I saw a guy who's probably like 3 feet 6 inches, in the 4-foot water and gasping for air.".

Not only was it Jack's first day on the job, it was only 20 minutes into his shift, when he had to put the lifesaving skills he had just learned to the test.

"Active drowners can still breathe, and they're still above water, but they are still in the act of drowning,” said Viglianco.

He had just completed ... a five-hour orientation the day before for all of our new and returning staff and we were ready to go, day one.".

His first day on the job, he says, is one he’ll never forget. »
