American Red Cross Swim Lessons
Swimming is a skill that not only keeps people active and healthy, but can also save a life! Drowning is the second leading cause of injury-related deaths for children under 14 and adults who cannot swim are at a greater risk, too. The best thing you can do to stay safe in and around the water is to learn to swim.
At the Kroc Center, learning and fun go hand in hand. Our swim lessons are designed to develop progressive swimming skills with a strong emphasis on safety in a friendly and fun environment. Lessons are offered for all age groups and skill levels. For any questions regarding which level you or your child should be in, please call the Aquatics office at 905-3590.
