New Braunfels, TX (May 26, 2021) – Schlitterbahn, the World’s Best Waterpark, today announced it has raised starting pay for several seasonal positions for the 2021 season. Lifeguard pay rates have increased to $15-$16 per hour, depending on certification, while Security hourly wages have risen to $14 per hour. Kitchen Staff hourly rates have also increased to $13 per hour. 

The park plans to hire 500 additional workers to meet anticipated guest demand for the 2021 season, after already hiring 1,100+ front-line associates this year. 
Job opportunities are still available in most park operating areas, including Lifeguards, Housekeeping, Park Services, Food and Beverage, Guest Services and more. The park is looking for a diverse range of applicants of all ages including students, retirees, and teachers, for example, who are looking for fun summer opportunities.  

Schlitterbahn offers flexible schedules and many perks for its associates, including discounts, reward and recognition programs, free tickets and admission to Schlitterbahn and any Cedar Fair park, and a $500 bonus for all eligible associates.

“We have chosen to increase wages as we know that seasonal associates play a vital role in the guest experience. We are committed to creating fun and memorable times for all our guests,” said Darren Hill, Schlitterbahn general manager. “But a seasonal job at our park can offer so much more. You can gain valuable experience in a safe environment, develop marketable skills for the future, and make new friends while being part of something truly special. And our seasonal associates have the opportunity to be rehired for jobs all the way through college and beyond.”
