For their safety, children not participating in swim lessons must be supervised by a parent/guardian, away from the water.
Staff’s goal is to make up every missed lesson; make-ups will be held on Fridays for rainouts. If weather causes multiple cancellations, staff cannot guarantee make-up lessons. There are no make-ups for personal scheduling conflicts resulting in a swimmer’s absence.
Staff will do their best to make accommodations. However registration is
