Free Second Grade Learn to Swim program

Sunday, March 5, 9:00 AM - 9:45 AM

YMCA, Deer Park Path

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.
