Swim Lessons
Swim lessons are available by swim team junior coaches and a number of lifeguards. Please check with the coach or lifeguard to arrange lesson times and then pay in advance of lessons at the gatehouse. Make sure you give a receipt to the instructor at the time of the lesson. The gatehouse also has information on who is teaching if you need it.
