Des Plaines Park District hiring lifeguards, and other summer positions
Every summer, The Des Plaines Park District looks to fill over 100 seasonal positions and this year is no different! The Park District Aquatics Department is actively seeking lifeguards, attendants and cashiers ages 15 and older. Lifeguards receive paid training and their certification is free. Additional sign on perks are available for pre-certified applicants.
“We encourage people of all ages to apply for our summer jobs. Teens, college students, retirees, parents and teachers who have the summer off would be welcomed to apply”, expressed Executive Director, Don Miletic. “Lifeguarding is a rewarding way to earn money, while giving back to their community.” Summer Aquatic facilities are directly connected to the amount of staff that we have to run them.
In the summer, the Park District currently operates Mystic Waters Family Aquatic Center (2025 Miner St), and two community pools- Arndt Pool (1990 White St) and Chippewa Pool (197 N. 8th Ave).
