SWIM TESTING REGISTRATION BEGINS OCTOBER 7th FOR LOWELL RESIDENTS AND ONE WEEK LATER FOR NON-RESIDENTS, IF SPOTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE.
TESTING REGISTRATION CLOSES ON OCTOBER 16th.
SIGN UP FOR SWIM TESTING. Lessons are filled at testing and are filled first come first served based during testing times. Registration only guarantees a testing time, not a swim lesson.
Process:
1.) Book a testing time.
2.) Come to testing ready to swim only at your designated time. Once there, check in with the instructors so that they know you are in attendance. If you are early you will need to wait until your time.
3.) When your name/number is called your group will enter the pool with the instructor.
4.) The instructor will have you perform some skills to determine your lesson level.
5.) After exiting the pool you can pick a swim time that correlates to your swim level. Once lessons are filled you will be placed on the wait list in case we have further openings.
Classes are filled first come first serve. Space is limited.
TESTING HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO OCTOBER 27th. REGISTER FOR THE TIME YOU WOULD LIKE TO TEST. SPOTS AND LEVELS ARE LIMITED SO NOT ALL KIDS MAY FIND A SPOT.
