• We recognize that change can be challenging, particularly for patrons accustomed to the online registration process for swim lessons we have used previously. Our management team is dedicated to enhancing accessibility to our programs. As part of this effort, we are transitioning from an online-only, first-come/first-served registration system to a more inclusive approach. This new system will enable us to accommodate more swimmers and better balance class sizes, ensuring that each participant receives an optimal instructor-to-student ratio tailored to their swimming level and needs.

All registration will be done through our lottery system for the 2025-2026 school year and summer. If you would like to come in person to be added to the lottery system, please come Monday-Wednesday the week of registration each session. Payments for patrons selected in the lottery CAN be made in person during open swim. 

Unfortunately we do not offer a waitlist for our swim lesson sessions. We rarely have cancellations and if we do its usually in the middle of a session.

Between the ages of 4 years old and 17 years old. If you sign up a swimmer that is too young or too old we will refund you.

We have increased our registration window to 3 days in order to better accommodate working families and people who need more time to register. All applications will be accepted for 3 days, then we will run the lottery selection process. If you are unable to access the Lottery Application Forms, please double check the registration dates for that session. For additional assistance, please contact the pool at mtallon@upsd83.org.
