The work responsibilities may include: organizing recreational and leisure activities, organizing and instructing classes, maintaining safety and health standards, organizing and maintaining all setup inventory, interpreting rental agreements, working in the box office, maintaining and cleaning classrooms, inspecting and monitoring facility and recreational equipment, promoting interest in overall programs and special activities, and performing other related work, as assigned.
