Meet The Lifeguards

Molly Leonard

Head Guard

I’m Molly and this is my 6th summer lifeguarding. I absolutely love Ridgemoor! I’ve spent so much time here over the years, I consider this place a second home.

Maddie Bocian

Head Guard

Hey, I’m Maddie! I’ve been working at the Ridge since 2021. There’s truly no better place to be when I’m working and when I’m coaching your kids, I’m always their #1 fan!

Ben Tuthill

Head Guard

Hello, my name is Ben. This is my 4th year guarding at Ridgemoor and I have swum competitively for 7 years. I love all kinds of pasta, making others laugh, and living every day to the fullest! As another famous Ben once said, “Lost time is never found again”.

Sam Hoekstra

Hi, I’m Sam! This is my 3rd year guarding at Ridgemoor. I am the only guard that had no competitive swimming experience prior to working here, BUT I can beat everyone else in a race… except for Ben. I’m so excited for this summer!

Jacob Tuthill

Hi, my name is Jacob! I have been a lifeguard at Ridgemoor since 2022 and a swimmer here since 2012. As they say, I’ve been “A1 since day 1” which is probably why I’m your kid’s favorite guard.

Mark VanHekken

My name is Mark, I’ve been lifeguarding at Ridgemoor since 2022 and swimming for the Ridge since 2012. All I do is 4 things: pick up poop, rock a gold whistle, take pictures, and take names.

Hi! I’m Izzy and this will be my second year working at Ridgemoor! I love working with kids and the other guards. I can’t wait for swim team and another great summer at the Ridge!

Ali Buist

Hi! My name is Ali. I have been a lifeguard at Ridgemoor since 2023 and have been swimming here since 2013. Guarding at the Ridge has been my dream job since I was a little kid and it is truly my favorite time of the year.

Arabella Sassano

Hi! I’m Arabella and this is my second year working at Ridgemoor! I love spending time with the kids and other guards. I can’t wait for another great summer!
