Dear Swim Families,
After 17 unforgettable years, this is one of the hardest things I’ve had to share… Larsen Swim School is closing.

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of serving more than 3,200 students and their families through nearly 10,000 sessions. What started as swim lessons became so much more—watching your children grow in confidence, learn life-saving skills, and truly thrive in the water has been an incredible honor.

To the parents who trusted me with your children, and to the families who became friends—thank you. Your support, kindness, and sense of community filled our home with so much joy. I will always carry those memories with me.

It has meant the world to be even a small part of your children’s journeys.

As I close this chapter, I’ll also be putting my home on the market in July and relocating to downtown Camas.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Shannon Larsen, Owner/Operator/Instructor
& Tara Larsen, Instructor
