Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilwoman Vicki Walsh announce that the Town is seeking individuals who are interested in working as lifeguards for local pools and beaches. The Town is accepting applications from qualified, certified individuals interested in lifeguarding positions at Tappen Beach and Pool in Glenwood Landing, as well as beach facilities in Bayville and Oyster Bay (Centre Island, Ransom, Stehli, and Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park), as well as Philip B. Healey Beach in Massapequa, for the upcoming summer season.
“Our lifeguards provide an invaluable service in protecting residents and have helped save countless lives in both pool and ocean waters,” said Supervisor Saladino. “The Town lifeguarding staff has a tremendous sense of dedication and understanding of integrity, accountability, and the importance of teamwork.”
Town lifeguards are hired for the summer season, which runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Positions are available at all Town pools and beaches. Applicants must be a minimum of 16 years old, possess a current Lifeguard Certification and a current CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer. Qualified applicants may apply in person at the Town of Oyster Bay Parks Department Human Resources Office, located in Town Hall South, 977 Hicksville Road in Massapequa.
“Having a summer lifeguard job at one of our beautiful summer facilities helps build confidence, self-esteem and leadership skills,” said Councilwoman Walsh. “In addition to the great sense of pride one has in being a lifeguard, there is also the great opportunity to spend time helping others at one of our beautiful summer facilities.”
