Lifeguarding Jobs at the Rec Center
Young adults looking for an awesome summer job need look no further than the local pool.
When most people think of summer jobs they had as a kid, they might remember flipping burgers or serving out ice cream. There are also the few who get to remember spending the summer at the pool and getting paid for it.
The St. Pete Beach Recreation Center is starting their lifeguard certification courses for those interested in becoming a lifeguard.
There'll be several different training sessions, starting with March 13 through 24. Later sessions include April 10 through 21, April 24 through May 5, and May 8 through19.
