NATIONAL YMCA SWIM PROGRAM:

If you are unLap Swimmingable to determine your child’s skill level contact Hilary Koppenhaver, Aquatic Director. Please register your child in the appropriate age group commensurate with their skills. For all advanced placements,the child must have passed the appropriate preceding level. Please do not ask to have your child placed at a level for which they are not prepared as this will impair their confidence and reduce their development as a swimmer. The YMCA Progressive Swim program is designed to build on essential skills to reach the optimal level
