A lifeguard walkout caused a shortage of beach workers in Ogunquit heading into the busiest months of summer. Longtime lifeguard J.P Argenti said the interim town manager stripped his lifeguard captain title and gave it to the fire chief, a move that triggered a lifeguard walkout. He had been fighting for more pay and hours for his veteran lifeguards.
