At approximately 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, August 21, lifeguards at the Kinsmen Water Park responded to a swimmer experiencing a medical emergency.
The swimmer was alert when paramedics from Parkland Ambulance arrived on scene and was transported to Victoria Hospital with an adult chaperone, where they were treated for the incident.
