If you know a hero in Mission Viejo, now's your chance to nominate the individual for our annual Male and Female Veterans of the Year awards. These are residents who bravely served our country and continue to serve our community by giving back.
We launched this program in 2011 to celebrate local veterans from all wars and conflicts. Since then, veteran honorees have been recognized during our annual Veterans Day ceremony.
The City of Mission Viejo is seeking lifeguards of all ages to help staff its recreation centers that are open year-round. The job can be rewarding for retired adults, with a passion for water safety and working outdoors, seeking a part-time position.
Across the country, older adults and retirees are stepping up to the lifeguard chair "” a job that historically has been a rite of passage for high-schoolers and college students. But with school back in session, the teen summer job is drying up and older adults are stepping up to fill the gaps.
