Safety routines
How a class starts
We begin when the gate is closed behind us and an adult is on the deck. The adult stays for the whole class.
Heat and weather
In the hottest weeks we teach in the morning and the evening. At the first thunder we get out of the water, and the class is made up in the same session.
Illness
A swimmer with a fever, a stomach bug or anything that spreads stays home. Text us and we will make up the class.
