Swim school offers group lessons for children 3 to 12 years old at the BCRD Aquatic Center during June, July, and August. Skill-based, leveled group lessons are offered in two-week sessions with 30-minute classes Monday through Thursday. The instructor to student ratio for group lessons is 1:4.
When: June 14 - August 19, 2021
Sessions are offered in 6 different time slots: 11am, 11:45am, 12:30pm, 1:15pm, 4:30pm, 5:15pm
Cost: $42 per session
Thanks to Atkinson's Market, scholarships are available. Please inquire when you register.
Age Requirements:
All swim school participants MUST be 3 years old or older by the start of their session. Due to COVID, we will not be offering swim lessons for children under the age of 3 years old.
Limited Capacity: Due to COVID-19, we are greatly reducing the number of children who will be allowed in each swim session. Because of this, each child may only pre-register for 3 sessions for the summer. You may be added to a waitlist for additional sessions and spaces will be filled if available 2 weeks prior to the start of the session.
Registration will be offered in-person at BCRD's FitWorks Front Desk or over the phone at (208) 788-2273 beginning Monday, April 26 from 4pm - 7pm and will continue Tuesday - Thursday 4pm-7pm and Friday 12pm-5pm. After the first week, swim school registration will be offered during regular FitWorks business hours in-person or over the phone.
Our instructors will decide which ability-based group is best for your child on the first day of the session.
You must decide and register your child for either BEGINNER or ADVANCED. Please read below PRIOR TO registering your child to ensure you registered him/her in the correct level.
BEGINNER LEVEL: This level ranges from a child who has little to no swimming experience but is willing to sit on the top step of the pool AND is comfortable being held in the water to a child who is comfortable putting their head in the water and can swim 5 yards unassisted. Minnows, Jellyfish and Goldfish are all considered "Beginner" level.
ADVANCED LEVEL: This level ranges from a child who can swim completely underwater and for 10-15 yards up to a child who is comfortable swimming the length of the pool and is working on refining a variety of swim strokes. Beta Fish, Sting Rays, and Sharks are all considered "Advanced" level.
