About/Registration:
Winter swim lessons are offered on Wednesdays
and Sundays using the East Pool at Oak Park
River Forest High School. Lessons aim to provide
increased swimming ability, water awareness,
and social growth through a 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.

placement please contact Kyle Sandine at
