OREGON – Learn to swim this winter at the Oregon Park District.

Morning, afternoon, evening and even Saturday classes are available this session. All classes start the week of Jan. 14 and meet once a week for 8 weeks. Registration deadline is Jan. 6. Sign up today as no late registration will be taken and classes are filling fast.

All classes are taught by certified Starfish Swim Instructors. Ages 3 and up participate in Level 1-6, and Starbabies are offered for ages 6 months to 3 years and need a parent in the water with them.  Also check out our Angelfish Program for swimmers with disabilities or special needs, allowing them to get the assistance they need in group lessons.

Private swim lessons are also available for 30 minutes of one-on one instruction. Students may choose to focus on specific skills or work on all the skills required to pass a swimming level.  Private lessons are for children and adults and are scheduled by the Aquatics Coordinator, Jena Wehmhoefer, jena@oregonpark.org or 815-732-3101. 

To register for swimming lessons, visit Nash Recreation Center, www.oregonpark.org, or call 815-732-3101.
