Water Safety

Water Safety Classes (2nd-4th Grade)

  • The class consists of approximately 30-45 minutes of on land interactive learning about water/pool safety rules; 5 W’s of wearing a life jacket; how to recognize an emergency; how to call for help; how to save someone from drowning without going into the water; the dangers of water and the weather (sun and lightning); and more. Then all children will spend 45-60 minutes in the water with an instructor putting into practice some of these new skills, plus learning some basic swim techniques.
  • Once all class objectives have been met, then there will be 10-15 minutes of playtime at the end with some of our cool toys!
  • Only participants need to be in the water. All spectators may view from the pool deck or on our balcony.
  • Minimum of 4 required; maximum of 8 per class.
  • Cost: $25 per person.

Registration ends 1 week before the class starts. If the minimum number of participants is not met, either the registration fee will be refunded or it can be transferred to another date.
