The City of Clarendon is looking for a few good people to fill several positions.
The Clarendon Aquatic Center is just a few weeks away from opening for the 2023 season, but City Administrator David Dockery says more employees are needed before the Memorial Day weekend opening.
Applications are being accepted at City Hall for the position of pool manager and for several lifeguard jobs.
“We need at least four or five more lifeguards,” Dockery said Tuesday.
Anyone ages 16 and older can apply for a lifeguard position, and they must take training to become certified.
City Hall also was informed Monday that its final candidate for the city administrator’s position had withdrawn his name from consideration.
Fred Ventresco, Town Administrator at Pine Tops, North Carolina, had told the city council he was applying in other locations during a virtual interview held on February 2. After the council released the other two final candidates from the search two weeks ago, Ventresco was scheduled to travel to Clarendon this week to tour the town and meet with officials in person.
Dockery said the city assumes Ventresco accepted a position elsewhere.
The council will meet this Thursday evening for its regular meeting and discuss the next steps in finding a successor for Dockery, who announced a year ago his intention to retire this April. Dockery will now stay on the job for a while longer.
