Hazlet Township Collaborates with Partner to Operate Swim Club
At a time when trained lifeguards and certified pool professionals are hard to hire and labor costs keep rising , the Hazlet Township Committee has entered into a partnership that will keep the Hazlet Swim Club gates open , while also producing additional compensation .
Under the direction of the Hazlet Township , private camp operator Camp Coconuts of Middletown will augment the township’s lifeguard staff to sustain operations at the Hazlet Swim Club during normal operations and provide a certified pool director , as required by the state . Camp Coconuts will pay the township $75 , 000 in additional compensation . Financial terms of the agreement will be announced to the public prior to the governing body’s next meeting
on Tuesday , May 24 .
“The Township Committee is pleased to announce this collaboration with Camp Coconuts , which has been a strong and reliable partner for Hazlet Township in the past two years while we faced the challenge of operating under Covid conditions , ” said Committeeman Skip McKay . “We are looking forward to another wonderful summer season at the Swim Club . ”
The agreement states that all Swim Club and Hazlet Recreation staff will report to the Hazlet Recreation Director , who will run the Swim Club and Recreation Camp .

from 8:45 a . m . to 11 a . m . Monday
through Friday . Just as before , Hazlet Swim Club will welcome members and their guests daily , from
