Pool FAQs

Are swim tests required?

For anyone under the age of 18, swim tests are required for every visit to the YMCA. This helps staff know which areas youth can visit based on their ability to swim. For families with little ones/non-swimmers, please maintain a ratio of two children for every adult.

How do I sign up for Swim Lessons?

Swimming is a vital skill for both fun and safety. Whether you or your child are a beginner or advanced swimmer, the Y offers opportunities for everyone to learn, grow, and foster a lifelong love of water activities.
