Vince's Park will offer 1 session of swim instruction this summer for 2 weeks. Each session consists of 5 days over 2 weeks, Monday through Friday. There are no classes on weekends unless severe weather (2x) causes a make-up date to complete coursework. Each session will run 45 minutes long. Levels of instruction will range from Toddler to Advanced. Parents are not required to attend classes with children. The staff at Vince's Park requests that you do not sit at the pool deck if you choose to stay. This allows for easier instruction from our staff.
Class size is limited on a first-received basis and payment is required to register. If a class fills, a waiting list will be taken. Every effort is made to accommodate as many children as possible without compromising the integrity of our program. Vince's Park program philosophy is simple: Quality over quantity.
