Swim Bay

Swim Bay - Summer 2013

Swim Bay features 280 feet of lifeguarded waterfront for 10 weeks each summer. In the supervised area, there is a low and high diving board as well as floating dock. Outside of the supervised area there is a youth dock with swinging rope and zip line. Parent supervision is strongly required when you use the unsupervised swim areas.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Our waterfront lifeguards will be on duty from Wednesday, June 19 to Friday, Aug 30 Monday through Sunday, 10:00 am-6:00 pm

SWIMMING LESSONS


Registration for Summer 2013 Swim Lessons is now open.

Help your child develop a healthy lifestyle through swimming. Your child will learn to swim and stay sage in a fun environment that promotes a personal best and celebrates individual success. our small class sizes in the beautiful Okanagan Lake make it an unique swim experience. Classes may be re-organized to ensure that children are participating at the most appropriate skill level.

In the beginner livels, children will focus on getting comfortable in the water, water safety and will learn progressions that will lead to stroke development in the higher levels. As the children progress, they will learn other competitive and survival strokes while building their distance and speed. Children will also learn about making safe decisions in, on and around the water.

In each level, participants are evaluated based on performance criteria and progress to the next level once all criteria have been successfully completed.
