ALL SWIM LESSONS ARE HELD AT THE EMPORIA RECREATION CENTER
The Emporia Recreation Commission provides a swim program for children, teens, and adults. Trained instructors will provide you with a supportive environment in which to learn and obtain skills.
The swim lessons are conducted in two-week sessions Monday through Thursday with Friday being used as a make-up day due to inclement weather during the week. Registration deadlines are 4:00 pm the Thursday before each session begins, no registrations will be taken after the deadline.
Once the session begins and the child is not enrolled in the appropriate class, an attempt will be made to place the child in a class more suitable to his/her skill level. Note that each class cannot exceed the maximum number of students: Pool Pals cannot exceed 3 students. All level classes must have a minimum of 4 participants enrolled for the class to be held.
All classes must be pre-registered and pre-paid. If the class you wish to register for is full, please place your name on our waiting list. We will make every attempt to accommodate the demand for swim instruction.
You may only enroll into one session at a time. Once the session is completed, the instructor will give a pass or fail grade. You may then enroll into the next session.
Non-toilet trained children must wear swim diapers.
