As Plano’s recreation centers attempt a return to normal, they’re facing a new obstacle – a shortage of applicants for summer jobs.

Plans to hold day camps and open pools for the summer could be greatly scaled back, as a result.

The city generally hires 400 to 500 seasonal staff members, including lifeguards, camp counselors and recreation aides that work the front desks.
