Swimming can be fun and is also a necessary life skill. Help your child start swimming on the right foot. • Evaluate your child’s swim ability and choose a class level, date and time. Not sure of their ability? Stop by one of our pools during an "Everyone Welcome" swim session and have one of the lifeguards evaluate your child (depending on staff availability). • Register for a class online or at one of our facilities early, as classes fill up quickly. • Arrive early to check-in and familiarize your child with the facility. Please have your child ready for class at the start of the lesson time. • Lockers are available and recommended. Tokens can be purchased from our front desk staff. • Have your child go to the bathroom before lessons. Children who are not potty trained must wear a swim diaper (available for purchase at the front desk). • All patrons must shower before entering the pool. • Bring your child’s towel onto the pool deck to keep your child warm before and after lessons. • Please stay home if not feeling well. • At the end of lessons, your instructor will recommend the appropriate level for the next set of lessons. Levels are frequently repeated to allow students to master skills and feel successful before moving onto a new level. Waitlists for Swimming Is a swimming class full? Put your child’s name on the waitlist for the specific class you want. If a spot comes up, we will contact you. If there is enough interest in a particular level, we will do our best to create a new class and contact you to see if it works for your schedule.
