New continuous enrollment format for Children's Group Swim, Parent/Toddler & Swim Team
The Aquatics Department is excited to announce that our Children's Group Lessons (Levels1-3) will be switching to Automated Billing starting in May! We’ll now be offering continuous enrollment for all children's swim programming. Parent/tot families will have unlimited access to all of our clubs, and are free to take as many classes as they’d like for $50/month. Jr Swim Team participants can pick a specific club and time and secure their space for $65/month (WAC Swim Team $75).  Enrollment is continuous, which means you can register at anytime and will remain registered as long as you want! We have had huge success with our Parent Toddler and Swim Teams on this automated billing system and look forward to having Levels 1-3 on a similar registration format.
