Swim Lessons Rock!
September is a bitter-sweet time of year. We long for those cool fall nights and days, but yet, the idea of no more summer sunshine at the pool is quite saddening! To help combat the post-summer blues, we recommend signing up for SWIM LESSONS! By signing up for a 1/2 hour or 45 minute swim lesson, you have a weekly reason to keep summer at the pool, a year-round reality!
