Lifeguard Positions Still Available
While the county has reached its goal of lifeguards for the season, we continue to recruit and hire lifeguard positions. Candidates must be at least 15 years old and have current lifeguard, first aid and CPR certifications. Lifeguard candidates must also successfully pass an aquatics test. Prior to taking the aquatics test, all applicants must present a doctor’s certification form, employment application and permission to investigate form. No aquatics test will be given without the required documentation.
Candidate must also pass a background check and be willing to work the entire season, including flexible hours, weekends and holidays. Returning lifeguards in good standing and applicants ages 18 and older will be given first preference.
Starting pay for lifeguards is $16 an hour. Training and certification is available at no cost to the applicant.
