Parks and Recreation holds job fair

Students seeking a job this summer can check out the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Summer Job Fair, 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday at the Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center, 4706 Overland Dr.

Lori Madaus, aquatics supervisor, said applications for swim lesson instructor, water fitness instructor, gymnastics instructor, land fitness instructor, dance instructor, lifeguard and other positions would be available at the fair.

Programs and classes are held year round, so jobs could be for the summer or longer.

Madaus said schedules were flexible so students could hold other jobs at the same time. The positions can be part-time or full-time.

“This is a great opportunity for students because of the flexibility in hours and the positive working environments,” Madaus said.
