Dr. Victor Zavala,
Chairman of the Asociacion de Mexican Salvavidas (AMS), also
known as the Mexican Lifeguard Association (MLA), has recently
announced the First National Meeting of Mexican Lifeguards,
in order to establish a constitution and design a national
structure for state representation.
This meeting will take place in Galveston, Texas, in conjunction
with the Fall USLA - National Meeting, this November 2004.
Its success will be dependent on the availability of all Mexican
regional lifeguard representatives to make that location on
those dates.
