Brothers and sisters galore! The swimming pools at Bellaire Aquatic Center and Evergreen Complex are staffed by more than 100 lifeguards (pictured), and about one-third of them are siblings. Aquatics supervisor Westly Tupa cannot remember another summer when they had so many sets of siblings on the payroll at the same time. Fortunately, the brothers and sisters leave the sibling rivalry at home and give their best efforts while working. The 12 sets of sibling lifeguards are Alex and Derek Adrion, Jake and Joe Beasley, Savoi and Sydni Coleman, Andrew and Brooke Crabtree, Giselle and Andres Garza, Jack and Andrew Harvey, AJ and Will Hazen, Cristian, Gabrielle, and Isabelle Luna, Sophia and Brandon Martin, Morgan and Macyn Tannery, Collin and Camille Thrash, and Evan and Chase Wei.
