Borderland Co-op Aquaplex–2020 Applications
We are now taking applications for summer employment at the Borderland Co-op Aquaplex. We will be losing a couple senior staff members this year as Alli will be staying in Calgary while Jevon moves over to a different position within Parks and Rec and Kamen will be working on his Co-op program. As such there will be room for new staff members.
We believe we have a tremendous atmosphere in which to work in, and offer an above average salary. Also note we ask all previous employees to submit a resume so we can keep up with any changes on their resume.
To submit an application please mail to Box 430 in Moosomin, email to msmn.rec.brd@sasktel.net or fax to 306-435-3343.
If you have any questions feel free to contact us at 306-435-3622.
