Free Swim Test Day
This new offering is intended for children who plan on being enrolled in our swim lessons. In sessions past, parents might have enrolled their child(ren) in a certain level and then after the first lesson - they get moved to another level. It is our hope that attendees to the free test day will have a firm understanding of which level to place their child.
