All children must be 100% potty trained to be registered for swim lessons.
Private Lessons Private Swim Lessons will be offered throughout the season and can be scheduled through Meghan Rudrow, the swim lesson coordinator. Once an instructor has been assigned, the instructor and member can establish the best time for the lesson(s) based on their schedules. The cost for private lessons is $16/half hour lesson.
