Swimming

Taking a Swimming Class
The Recreation Department offers Red Cross swim classes for children of all ages and abilities. Designed for all levels, classes allow swimmers to develop good habits in, on, and near water, become comfortable in the water, learn and refine new strokes, and become a stronger, and safer swimmer.   

Swimming Lessons
Red Cross swim classes are available for infants, toddlers and children ages 2-12.  You can expect caring, patient, and safe instruction from trained, instructors who can help even the most timid of swimmers learn to enjoy the water. Every beginner class starts with the basics, like becoming comfortable in the water and learning safety and basic strokes, then moves on to stroke development, refinement and improvement, then developing ease and efficiency in the water. In addition to Red Cross swimming classes, we also have a free app that can help you stay motivated between classes and progress to the next level.
