Seabrook Holds Appreciation Event for Student Workers

More than 50 local high school students attended Seabrook’s Employee Appreciation Event held at Bradley Beach Bowl & Recreation on January 17. The students, who work as wait staff and utility workers for Seabrook’s Dining Services after school and weekends, enjoyed an evening of bowling, refreshments and raffle prizes.

“We host events like this throughout the year to reward our student employees for their hard work and dedication to the Seabrook community,” said Mary Beth Sheehan, Director of Dining Services. “They are part of our team that is making a difference in our residents’ lives.”

“Thank you to our administrative coordinator, Niki Clay, for organizing another great event,” said Sheehan. “Students were thrilled with the location, food, decorations, and raffle prizes of basketballs, Dunkin Donut gift cards, headphones, blue tooth speakers, and more.”

The annual celebration event is just one of the few perks of working at Seabrook, an active continuing care retirement community in Tinton Falls. Seabrook also offers college scholarships to eligible students. Since 2001, the community has provided 1,115 student worker scholarships valued at $672,400.

Seabrook employs over 200 high school students from Neptune High School, Ocean Township High School, Holmdel High School, Academy Charter High School in Asbury Park, and Manasquan High School, among others.

Seabrook is currently hiring students for 2016. For more information and to submit an application, visit http://jobs.ericksonliving.com.
