Swim Lessons

We will be hold our in-person RESIDENT ONLY swim lesson registration night on Monday, April 22nd from 4:30pm - 6:30pm in the Community Gym (proof of residency required - Town residents are considered non-residents). After that, we will take registrations for both residents and non-residents on Mondays and Wednesdays, May 6 - May 22 at the Cedarburg Community Pool from 4-6pm. 

The Cedarburg Community Pool uses American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim program. The program begins with Parents and Child Aquatics and continues through Level VI. Please review class descriptions below for appropriate child placement. The Cedarburg Community Pool Staff encourages parents to emphasize learning new skills and improving on existing skills. Over-emphasizing that children pass levels can lead to disappointment and discouraged youth.
