About/Registration:
Fall swim lessons are offered on Sundays using the
East Pool at Oak Park River Forest High School.
Lessons aim to provide increased swimming ability,

progression of skill development and instructor
interaction.
Swimming is taught in a progression of skill work
from one level to the next. It is important to master
a level prior to moving on. In order for participants
to be safe and learn properly it is essential to enroll
in the level matching the recommendation from
your last class. For questions regarding registration
