March 17, 2010 - Lifeguard Try Outs and Pre-Season Schedule
You can find a schedule showing all important pre-season beach patrol testing and training dates here. If you will be returning for the 2008 season it is your responsibility to send in the pre-employment application so I know that you are returning. This year the returning lifeguards will swim test the day after the new applicants so it is imperative you let me know that you are returning or it is possible I could fill your spot with a new applicant if I don't know you are coming back! It is not okay to simply show up at the make-up test as I will assume you are not returning and may fill your position. Also keep in mind that if you have friends that want to try out they should come to the initial test on May 24 as the make-up test will only be available for new recruits if position are open.
Lifeguard Test Date:
Saturday, May 22 at 12 Noon (for new applicants)
Sunday, May 23 at 12 Noon
(for returning lifeguards)
Make-Up Test (if needed)
A make up test will be scheduled if it should be necessary. Check this
space for an update after initial testing.
Where:
St. Francis Community Pool. Located at 4700 Long Beach Boulevard, Brant Beach, NJ, 08008.
The Test:
Make sure you bring goggles and you completed Pre-Employment
Application to the test!
If you
have any other questions or concerns, or can't make either test date contact me
at dileomd@comcast.net address below. Make sure you take a look at the FAQ's before
e-mailing, you may find the answers to your questions there.
