You must attend all 4 days of EdVenture Club-Summer to participate in our Summer swimming lessons.Swimming lessons are only available for the levels listed below. Registration is on a first come first serve basis. Check the level carefully; if your child is signed up for the wrong level, he/she may not be able to participate. For example; a kindergartner or first grader seldom have the prerequisites required to register for level 4/5. Every effort will be made to switch levels if space is available; however, lessons are usually full, and it may not be possible to switch levels.Swimming lessons are located at the VandenBerge Middle School pool in Elk River. Bussing is provided for sites; Parker participants will walk with staff to the pool. Students will be off site for lessons from 12:30pm-2:00pm, Monday-Thursday.Because Rogers will be closed for the Summer program, we are offering 2 sections of swim at the Hassan location. If you register for the swim lessons and find later that you no longer need it, you will need to email edventure club at edventureclub@isd728.org.Parker Summer Swim: July 21-24, 4 sessions Swim Lesson DescriptionsLevel 1: Intro to Water SkillsIs primarily focused on getting students comfortable with the water, basic aquatic skills and safe practices in and around water.
