UAF Nanook Recreation

UAF is looking for a new swim instructor. Historically, the swim teacher has taught an Intro/Intermediate class and then a Conditioning class. Recently, we have also offered an Aqua HIIT class (think Aquasize...but cooler).

If anyone is interested in an Adjunct position or Temp position with UAF and the pool, please contact Mark Oldmixon. Classes would need to meet weekday mornings between 9 and Noon.

Contact Mark and to talk details or options. We are open to new approaches/ideas.
