For those on the hunt for a seasonal gig with a side of sunshine, League City's Parks and Recreation Department has just released its summer job lineup. Camp enthusiasts and pool pros, take note—they're looking for Camp Directors & Counselors, Lifeguards, and Pool Managers to join their team. You must be at least 15 to lifeguard, swim a clean 300 yards, and either hold an American Red Cross Lifeguard Certification or commit to obtaining one after being hired. To work at camp, you need to be 18 or older, have experience working with kids, and be available for the entire summer season. More details are available in League City's announcement.
Not everyone's keen to quickly slap on sunscreen, though. Maybe you're more the bookish type? Helen Hall Library has got you covered with jobs that let you avoid the peak summer heat. They're in need of a Children’s Services Assistant, Library Account Services Assistant, and Teen Services Assistant. Dust off that high school diploma or equivalent because it's your ticket in. Expect to clock in nights and weekends, committing to a 40-hour workweek. It's a trade-off: air conditioning over sunburns.
These gigs aren't just about filling your pockets; they're stepping stones to beefing up that résumé with "valuable skills" and getting you snug as a bug in a "great team of co-workers," according to the Parks and Recreation Department's recruitment pitch. If shaping young minds or keeping the community literate is your jam, these roles might have your name scribbled all over them.
