In an effort to stop childhood drowning, The Hunterdon County YMCA is offering 2nd graders who are at the beginner level (total non-swimmer and doggie paddlers) one free session of swim lessons per school year. We ran the first session in Fall 2016. The next session (remember they can only take one), will be held during our spring I Session. The classes will be offered every afternoon Monday thru Thursday at 4 pm. Saturday at 8 am and 12 noon and Sunday at 9 am. Students may enroll on line now. The classes run from Feburary 27 through April 15.
Students register for one class (ie., Monday at 4) and attend once a week for 7 weeks. The classes are 45 minutes in length and cover water safety, basic swimming and survival skills. Children will be evaluated and given a progress report at the end of the session.
The entire month of March and April, daily!
*Adults will enjoy a grown-up easter egg hunt during a one hour guided trail ride (15 minutes of instruction in our riding ring first to boost confidence) where you can hunt for easter eggs filled with chocolate and mini bottles of alcohol while meandering through the woods. Don't worry you won't have to get off your horse - the eggs and bottles will be hanging on trees within your grasp!
*Children OF ALL AGES will have a blast on a 15 minute hand-led ride on one of our safe horses/ponies through our woods for their chance to spot easter eggs hidden all through the woods! Their eggs contain chocolate, candy, and little toys.
