To Pool or Not to Pool
J.B. Howick
City Council
Our city pool needs three things to operate: a manager, lifeguards, and maintenance. The City has the maintenance covered, but lifeguards can’t be hired without a pool manager. To date, no one has applied to become this year’s manager — and we’re running out of time.
The pool opens to the public the first week of June, but the City needs a pool manager for the pre-opening procedures that begin this year on May 1st. The City can coordinate the necessary CPR, first-aid and pool operator training, but we need time to do that. Applicants must be high school graduates, have a valid license to drive, and be available to perform the duties. Details are available via the application at the City offices.
The children of our City and surrounding areas love the pool, but without a pool manager (and, later, lifeguards) there will be no pool. The City has re-opened the pool manager application period, which closes again on March 15th, and invite you or someone you know to consider this enjoyable summertime job. Applications can be downloaded from the Notices & Information page on the City’s website, TownsendMontana.net.
