Beginning this year, a small fee will be added to swim lessons. This change helps us maintain the highest quality instruction and provide the best possible experience for every participant. The new charge will vary based on the number of lessons per session block (approximately $6.00 per lesson). Thank you for supporting the future of swim education at the Clark Sports Center, we look forward to seeing you at the pool!
Swimming lessons are offered for youth of all ages and abilities, preschool – high school. Lessons are for members only. Class space may be limited, especially in the beginning levels. There will be no “drop-ins” allowed at lessons.
