The Town of Rhinebeck Swim Lessons Program is taught by American Red Cross certified Lifeguards.  The Swim Lessons Program is a tiered program designed to provide students with a positive learning experience and teach children to swim and be safe in and around the water.  Swim levels follow the guidelines of standard American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim Lessons.  Students will be evaluated on their first lesson to make sure they are in the appropriate level.  Once all skills within a level are accomplished, children will be advanced. Maximum of 8 students per class; must be at least five years of age and comfortable working in the pool with coaches. Parents are not in the pool with the children at any level.
