Swim Team
Practices will be the same time and format as in previous years and are detailed on the practice schedule tab.  We will continue to offer the afternoon swim team practice to accommodate those swimmers in summer school or with conflicting morning activities. Please note – this is not a substitute practice for the morning practices and can only be used by those with schedule conflicts. Please contact Lindsey Plodzeen with specific dates for when your swimmer will need to attend these afternoon practices so we can staff them appropriately.

Swim Lessons (Minimum Age 3yrs)

 

Swim lessons will be coordinated by Coach Jamie and will be taught using the American Red Cross guidelines.  Each child will be evaluated on the first class of the session and assigned to a group according to skill level.

 

Lessons will be offered in weeklong blocks and be held daily.  Children can sign up for whichever weeks work with their family schedules and attend as many lessons during the week as they choose.  Daily repetition has been shown to improve the learning process.  Classes will be taught in a progressive format and we encourage all children to take advantage of as many days as possible.

 

Lessons will be five days a week for 8 weeks.  Purchase as many weeks as you would need.
