FALL SWIM LESSONS START TOMORROW!

We’re excited to welcome everyone back to the pool for another session of fun, learning, and making a splash!

Before heading to your lesson, here are a few important reminders to help everything run smoothly and safely:

🚿 Please shower before entering the pool.

🚻 Washroom reminder: Please have young swimmers use the washroom before their lesson.

🍎 Please refrain from eating immediately before entering the pool to help prevent pool fouling and keep our water clean and safe for everyone.

👶 Not toilet trained? Children who are not toilet trained must wear a swim diaper while in the pool.

👟 No outdoor shoes or strollers: Outdoor shoes and strollers are not permitted on the pool deck.

📍 Find your lesson sign: We have placed signs around the pool deck for each lesson level. Please go to the sign that matches your child’s lesson. Your instructor will meet you there and bring the class into the pool.

📵 No cell phones on the pool deck or picture/video taking from the viewing areas.

👀 Parents & guardians: Please watch your child’s lesson from the upper balcony or pool viewing gallery.

💦 Need a little extra support? For introductory levels parents and guardians are encouraged to enter the water to help their child feel comfortable and confident while learning. Please bring a bath suit.

Thank you for helping us keep our pool safe, organized, and welcoming for everyone!
