Summer Lifeguard Job Fairs

The Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) is hosting two Job Fairs for their Summer Lifeguard jobs.  Each year they hire over 200 lifeguards to work at 30 different pools around the city.  Eligibility is limited to anyone 15 or older, but candidates of all skill levels are welcomed.

If you’re interested, make sure you bring (a) a filled out Preliminary Employment Application from DPR and (b) a swimsuit to the job fair.

There are two job fairs.

The Ferebee Hope Recreation Center
