Session 2 of swim lessons starts September 21!

One of our favorite things about swim lessons is watching a swimmer's confidence grow. 💙

This happy swimmer has made tremendous progress in the pool, and we love seeing her confidence shine through! That's what swim lessons at The Rec are all about - building skills, becoming more comfortable in the water, and helping each swimmer grow at their own pace.

Our next 5-week session begins September 21, with weekly lessons for swimmers at a variety of skill levels.

Not sure which level is right for your swimmer? Contact us ([email protected]) and we'll be happy to help with placement!

Register for Session 2 in person at The Rec or online using the link in the comments. See you in the pool!

Summer may be over, but swimming doesn’t have to be!

Swim Conditioning is a chance to keep building endurance, improving technique, and getting stronger in the water, all while keeping your love for the sport going.

Come swim with us!

Faces of the pool: Meet Adrienne!

One of the best parts of The Rec is the people who bring our programs to life. Today, we're introducing you to Adrienne, one of our water fitness instructors! We asked her a few quick questions so you can get to know her a little better.

What do you love most about teaching water fitness?
"I love the friendships I have developed with the people I have met at the Rec and in my classes. Also, teaching classes makes me be accountable to workout, even when I don't feel like it!"

Something people might be surprised to learn about you:
"I used to be shy! I would never get out of my comfort zone to introduce myself to someone. Now I do it all the time! I really do enjoy meeting new people!"

Favorite things to do when I'm not at the Rec:
"I love to spend time with my family. I also love to read and watch movies."

We're so lucky to have Adrienne on our team! If you haven't tried one of her water fitness classes yet, come join us: she teaches Mondays and Thursdays at 9am, and Tuesdays at 5:30pm!

This week at The Rec🏊‍♀️💦

There’s a lot happening in and around the pool this week - from swim lessons and swim conditioning to water fitness, lap swim, open swim, and more. There’s always something happening at The Rec!

Please note that the pool will be closed for one hour on Friday from 11-12 while we trial something new we’re hoping to bring to the community this fall. We can’t tell you too much just yet… but we think you’re going to like it. 😉
