We offer summer swimming lessons in three different outdoor pools! If you are interested in enrolling in lessons, please click on the link for the desired location to submit a registration placement request. Registration opens for club members at all three sites on May 1. Non-members can register starting May 15. We use the information on the registration request form to make a preliminary placement. If after the first lesson the instructor determines that the placement needs to be adjusted, a change in the best interest of the swimmer will be made.
Lessons are 30 minutes long and class size is adjusted based on the ages of the participants. This information is outlined on the registration placement request form.
