Most Public Pools At Indiana State Parks To Open; Lifeguards Needed

Most pools will open Memorial Day weekend if properly staffed with lifeguards.

(Versailles, Ind.) – Most pools at Indiana State Parks are expected to open this season, but lifeguards are needed.

The Indiana Department of Natural Resources says most public swimming pools at Indiana State Park properties will open Memorial Day weekend if the required number of lifeguards can be recruited and certified for each respective park property.

Concession services will also be open at those pools.

Lifeguards are needed at area state parks such as Versailles and Clifty Falls.

Positions are open to applicants ages 16 and older. For more information, contact the state park property nearest to you at www.stateparks.IN.gov.

In addition, the DNR Division of State Parks recently honored volunteers, partners, and employees for their commitment to conserve, manage and interpret resources while creating memorable experiences for guests in 2020.

A Year to Volunteer was recognized for work on projects in partnership with Versailles State Park staff, including construction of a large observation deck at Bradt Natural Area, trail construction, replacement of flooring in the group camp recreation hall and other projects. This group, led by Char and Phil Roos, brought skilled volunteers from across the country to complete these projects.
