Swim Lessons Registration Open

We are accepting registrations beginning March 31, 2021 and we will work with our lifeguards and swim instructors to decide who and how many we can take for each session. We will create a waiting list after we gather the first month’s registrations. The details are below. Parents must stay onsite during the lessons and in the pool area for non-swimmers. EVERY DAY swimmers and parents need to self screen their temperature and attest to standard Covid-19 precautions. Currently we are only offering Levels 1-5 and mommy and me classes will be scheduled at a later date. Open swim and private swim sessions will be available for registration in May.

Registration - Before we schedule the times for each lesson, we need to know the swim levels and who is going to seriously register. Last season, we had a lot of no-show lessons costing us thousands of dollars. The only way we can make this work for our community and our camp is to have everyone pre-pay in full. Here are the steps.

  • Registration Opens March 31, 2021 & Closes April 30, 2021. When we receive our first 20 registrations, the site may close for a brief period to catch up and leave room for slotting children.

  • Lessons will be 25 minutes with instructor and 20 minutes free swim. 15 minutes to clean and exit pool before next session. There are a total of 8 lessons per session and you may choose to pay for more than one per child.

  • During registration, you will select Monday-Thursday or Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday.

    • Monday-Thursday will be back to back weeks for 8 daily lessons

    • M/W or T/Th will be 4 weeks back to back for 8 lessons total

    • No swapping, switching etc will be allowed per instructor requests for consistency, safety and Covid-19 guidance

  • Level 1 - 5 Options with Level 1 being brand new to swimming. Our registrar will ask you a series of questions on the phone and will work with you to slot your child in the appropriate class. Please remember that it is based on the child’s ability, not age or sibling pairing etc. This is very important to the safety of the swimmer in the class.

    • Level 1 is beginner, not able to swim on own. Level 2 is beginner, can swim briefly on their own. Level 3 is novice and can swim from one side to the other on their own. Level 4 capable of swimming and treading water for lengths of time. Level 5 advanced swimming ability and looking to refine skills.

  • Our Volunteer Registrar Suzanne Delp will contact you directly inside of 1 week of your registration to slot your preferred time with child’s swimming level.
