Perfect Medley
Since 1936, members of lifeguard services throughout Southern California have gathered at sunset for the Judge Irving Taplin Medley Relay. Under special lights near the Hermosa Beach Pier, these friendly competitors test their endurance in a race that consists of two runners, four swimmers, four paddlers, one surf ski paddler and four two-person dories. The result: 40-minutes of pure adrenaline and sustained excitement … pushing even the fittest lifeguard to his or her physical limits. This year, a team from Victoria, Australia competed against our lifeguards. the winning team, LA County Central Section “A,” got the honor of holding the “Taplin Bell” perpetual trophy until the following year’s race.
Sweet Surrender
Ditch the processed, sugar-laden drink mixes and whip up these blended cocktails with hydrating coconut water, melon, crisp cucumbers, tart citrus, fresh herbs and a little spice. Use Honey Simple Syrup with rich caramel notes to balance smoky mezcal or tequila for just the right amount of sweet.
