Milford Rec Seeking Summer Lifeguards

Milford Recreation is looking for certified lifeguards for Walnut Beach, Gulf Beach, Hawley Beach and Anchor Beach between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day.

Lifeguards must be 16 years old by the start of their first shift. Those who are not currently certified as a lifeguard may still apply if they will be certified by June 21. All summer camp staff must be available to work on July 4.

Lifeguards’ primary responsibilities are to protect lives by constantly scanning the aquatic facility to recognize swimmers in distress, wearing a rescue tube and carrying mask and gloves while on the stand or patrolling the aquatic area edge. The lifeguard maintains the aquatic area.

Applications and more information are available upon request by contacting Rich Minnix by phone at 203-783-3387, emailing rminnix@milfordct.gov and at the Milford Recreation office. Applications must be turned in by March 15 at 4 p.m.
