JaxParks Aquatics is gearing up for this year's swim season and are looking to hire lifeguards! Never been a lifeguard or need to be recertified as a lifeguard, no problem, get the training you need with us.  All you have to do is complete these three prerequisites skills: 

• 300 yard swim
• 2 minutes of treading water without using hands
• Retrieve a 10 pound brick from the bottom of the diving well.

And that's it! See the 2022 training dates and locations below.
