Date and Time: Saturday, April 20 – 1 to 3 p.m. (Pre-registration required)

Swim lessons are a great way to prevent drowning, but other hidden dangers exist. This event will teach children to know the water’s limits and adequately use a life jacket. This will help your children be safer in other aquatic environments. The last hour of the event will include a free open swim for participants and their families.
