Fall 2026 Aquatics Schedule

Swim Lessons
We are currently working on our fall swim lesson schedule and are hopeful to offer a session in late October or early November. At this time, we are finalizing pool availability, staffing, and program scheduling to ensure we can provide the high-quality instruction and safe learning environment that families have come to expect.

While we are optimistic about offering a late fall session, registration is not yet open, and final dates will be announced as soon as they are confirmed.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through the scheduling process. Please watch for future updates regarding lesson dates, registration information, and session details. We look forward to welcoming swimmers back to the pool this fall and continuing with additional lesson opportunities during the spring season.
