Swim Lessons

Lessons annually run the first full two weeks in July.

Registration forms will be attached to the back of the May 2012 newsletter, or are available at the Recreation Office. Once all forms are returned, the summer 2012 swim schedule will be made up, and parents will receive a call with the swim times. Schedules will also be available in late June on this page, and on our facebook page at www.facebook.com/StMarysRec

Deadline to register for the summer swim program is Thursday, May 31st at 4pm. Register before the deadline to avoid a $10 late registration fee.
