Hundreds of friends and colleagues gathered last week at a retirement party for the founder of the Newport Beach Junior Lifeguard program.
Lifeguard Battalion Chief Reenie Boyer retired in December. Boyer started the city’s Junior Lifeguard program in 1983 with 54 students; the program now has 1,300 students each summer.

The party was held Thursday at the Newport Beach American Legion Hall. Read our earlier story here.
