Columbia Association, be a lifeguard. Its a chill job with reasonable hours with everyone around your age. They pay for your training which includes CPR training. You stay in shape, get decent pay and get a free CA membership.

When I was that age I worked at the East Columbia Library (in Owen Brown) and worked as a summer camp counselor for Howard County. The library was a very chill relaxing job. Being a camp counselor was super fun.

Lots of my friends were also CA lifeguards as many people suggested above.

And they pay weekly. However, depending on which giant matters. My daughter definitely struggled at ours and after 3 months I made her quit. They have since had a major change in management but she found a lovely part time job since then.

Going along with all the CA comments, I was a front desk attendant at one of their gyms and it was pretty chill too! They give you a free Fit + Play membership so you get access to all the gyms and all the pools once they're open in the summer too.

My co-worker's daughter worked at the new(ish) Charmery by Merriwether. Seemed like fun for a kid that age.

Do you have a high school diploma? Definitely recommend checking out Howard Community College to take some classes part time while working. They have apprenticeship programs too so you get paid while going to school.

Back in the day, I would have suggested the Palace 9.

Now, depending on your career path, it's never a bad time to start a path to waiting tables and bartendering by getting some experience busing tables and being a bar back. Waiting tables in your teens and early 20s is way better than hourly minimum-wage employment
