Officials with Parrot Island Waterpark announced Tuesday (March 17) the start of hiring 100-150 part-time employees for the aquatics facility now under construction at Ben Geren Regional Park.
The almost $12 million facility is set to open on or before Memorial Day weekend. Jobs will include lifeguards, concessions, attendants and maintenance crew. Parrot Island Waterpark will conduct training and certification for lifeguards. Applicants must be 16 years of age or older.
Applications are available for download on this page of the Parrot Island website. Applications may be mailed to (3301 S. M St., Fort Smith AR, 72903) or delivered to The Creekmore Center in Fort Smith, where hard copies of the application will also be available.
Interviews are scheduled to begin over spring break.
“Come and be part of the inaugural staff as we open this amazing one of a kind water park. Make this your opportunity to serve the community of Sebastian County and the City of Fort Smith,” said Parrot Island General Manager William Miller.
