PALMDALE – The city of Palmdale’s recreation and culture department will begin accepting applications today, Monday, Feb. 4, for Program Leaders and Lifeguards for its summer activities.

Candidates must be 17 years old by July 1, 2019 to be considered for employment.

Lifeguard applicants must possess a lifeguard training certificate and pass a pre-screening swim test.

“Program Leader positions are ideal for those who are seeking entry-level work to develop their professional career skills,” stated Director of Recreation and Culture Keri Smith. “You will have the opportunity to be part of a team of positive, motivated and community-minded people that will be part of Palmdale’s busy summer of fun programs.”

“If you are new to the work force, keep in mind that we look for candidates who are involved in extra-curricular activities, regular or on-going volunteer service, or who have participated in school or league athletics/theatrical or performance arts,” Smith added.

    Those traits are not easy to find today.
