Interested in working with children and teaching swim lessons? Sign up today to be a Water Safety Volunteer Aide!
Volunteers will help in our Learn to Swim programs and assist lifeguards with teaching swim lessons. Water Safety Aides (WSA) must be comfortable in the water and enjoy working with children. They should be able to swim at a level 3 or higher. Students ages 12 to 15 years of age may volunteer.
This unique volunteer opportunity is open to students who are interested in working with children and gaining experience in a pool setting as a future lifeguard. The WSA program allows young volunteers to assist lifeguards in our learn to swim programs, which provides them with invaluable skills and fulfills community service requirements.
Registration is required (FREE) for insurance purposes. We are looking for individuals to commit to the full two-week session. Limit 6 volunteers per session. Limit two sessions per volunteer.
