Swimming Lessons

Knowing how to swim is an important skill for every child to have. Each summer, Fairfield Pool offers affordable swimming lessons for children.

Lessons are offered in one week long sessions, and are typically taught by lifeguards or swim teach coaches.

Signing up

Sign up at the front desk as you enter the pool. If the binder is not at the desk, please ask the guards for the "Swim Lessons Binder".

To serve a greater number of pool members, each child is limited to TWO sessions of swim lessons.  However, if space is still available on the Friday before the start of the next session, a child who is already registered for two sessions may be signed up for that next session.

You must pay for the entire week (session) regardless of how many lessons you are able to attend. Lessons are based on a weekly rate. If you know that you want lessons but cannot be here Monday thru Friday of the desired week, you may want to consider signing up for a different session.

Instructors may change weekly, so if you would like a specific instructor, it is recommended that you sign up in advance.
