Possibly Applying

[Bookworm3616]

Hi there-

Wow. Been a while since I've posted here.

So, I have questions about one of the parts in the information about the counselor position. How unafraid of water do I have to be?

Do I have to be able to get lifeguard certified? Just not anxious? Able to scuba dive? Trying to determine if I'm qualified for the position.

I really don't like boats. Or rough water. Can swim fine, just don't expect me to jump on a boat or into a crowded wave pool. No desire to be a life guard

From my years at Space Camp/Academy/Advance, I only remember scubba being a possible issue (they wouldn't let me due to health).

I rather not apply and get there to be surprised lifeguard trained. Or expected to scubba dive like it's no big deal.

While it's been some years now for me, at the time I was a counselor, you didn't (and still don't) need to be a certified lifeguard.

I did some swimming during counselor training, but that was the last time I was in the water...

I wouldn't worry about it.
