Participants will interview on the final day of their Jr. Guard Course. Those selected to be City of Peoria Jr. Guards for the 2013 season will be assigned to a pool and given opportunities for volunteering throughout the summer. Twelve Jr. Guards will be selected for each pool, and will participate in skills clinics, in-service trainings, swim lesson instruction and more. Schedules are flexible for the Jr. Guards and allow for summer vacations.
Incentives are offered for participants in the Jr. Guard Course and those selected as City of Peoria Jr. Guards.
