Aquatics

Swim lessons at Orange Pool are getting a refresh! Starting this summer, a refreshed swim lesson curriculum will be introduced at Orange Pool, designed to more effectively support skill development at every stage. To help with the transition, a quick cheat sheet, linked below, has been put together to guide current participants in choosing the appropriate level when registering. It will be exciting to seeing participants grow and succeed in the updated program.

Class schedules can be found within the Aquatics section of the Activity Guide or under the Aquatics tab on the online registration website (CivicRec). Unless noted otherwise, all registrations open at 6:00 a.m. online and in-person at Orange Pool.
