LEAP is preparing for another season of swimming lessons.
LEAP, the youth academics and recreation agency, is providing swim lessons for a fee for children and adults who want to learn to swim or who already know the basics but want to improve their skills.
Classes are currently provided for children ages 5 to 15, and adults 18 and up. All participants may take swim classes whether they are in LEAP’s regular programs or not. Swim classes are provided at the agency’s pool at 31 Jefferson St.
New classes start about every six weeks and run for five weeks. Classes are held twice a week. You can sign up for either Mondays and Wednesdays, or Tuesdays and Thursdays. Classes run for 45 minutes and start at either 6 pm or 7 pm.
The full five-week program (10 total classes) costs $100 per child and $120 per adult, and must be paid in advance. Discounts are not given if you miss a class. You can pay at the front desk at LEAP via check or with cash. Checks can be made payable to “LEAP”.
You can sign up for swim classes by stopping by the LEAP office, filling out an application and waiver form for your child. To make things easier, print out and fill out the form beforehand and bring it with you. You can also can call 203- 773‑0770 to see what times and spaces are still available.
