Tucson Parks and Recreation will have 10 pools open for summer swim activities from June 2 to Aug. 3. Responding to a lifeguard shortage, the City has focused on making water safety and quality aquatic programming the top priorities. The summer schedule will allow for recreational swimming, lap swimming, learn-to-swim lessons, and new Aqua and Deep-Water Fitness classes. Learn-to-swim lessons information will be released next week. 

Lifeguard recruitment remains a top priority, and hiring will remain open to give the City the ability to explore expanding schedules or locations if staffing increases. Applicants must be at least 15 years of age and must have lifeguard certifications. Apply online at www.Tucsonaz.gov/jobs. For those lacking the lifeguard certification, call (520) 791-4245 for information on where to get certified.
