Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering with Richmond's Aquatic Services is a great way to get involved in the community and:

• develops interpersonal, organizational and leadership skills
• gains experience in lifeguarding and instructing 
• creates new friendships
  
• includes lots of fun!

Richmond's Aquatic Services provides valuable and relevant experience directly applicable to the responsibilities of a Lifeguard Instructor. Many of the Lifeguard Instructors hired in Richmond are selected as successful candidates from skills and experiences gained from volunteering.

Volunteer experiences can include assisting or participating:

• with swim lessons
• with special needs swim lessons
• in staff in-service training sessions (eg, acting as a victim in an emergency)
• in shadow guarding
• with birthday parties
• with aquasize classes
• with the planning and/or implementation of special events
• in the fitness centre
