** Please note: Our SWIM FOR LIFE program has replaced our previously offered Red Cross programming **
Have no fear though, as Rath Eastlink Community Centre’s Swim for Life program is part of the Life Saving Society's national program that teaches hundreds of thousands of Canadians how swim every year. The new program is a flexible learn-to-swim continuum that is not only compatible with Red Cross' curriculum, but easily cross converts it's lessons with a focus on basic swimming skills and strokes, that lead seamlessly into the Canadian Swim Patrol program.
For Winter 2020, the RECC offers a weekly lesson program over an 8-week period. Please see our downloadable WINTER 2020 SWIMMING LESSON SCHEDULE with accompanying Red Cross conversion chart
Registration begins 9AM TUESDAY DECEMBER 10th and can be made ONLINE (click here to register) or IN-PERSON at the RECC Welcome Desk.
Please note that Private lessons can now be booked online for an individual, however if the lesson needs to be changed into a SEMI private, you will have to visit IN-PERSON at the RECC Welcome Desk to add the other person afterward. Registrants are also required to pay the price for both children if requesting a semi private lesson, even if not in the same family. The RECC will NOT make it a semi private until we know we will have payment available.
Any special requests or considerations must be emailed to our Aquatics Manager Laura Croft at lcroft@ratheastlinkcc.ca
Annual Family Members of the RECC can now register in-person 24 hours in advance! Please note that availability is on a first come, first serve basis and classes will NOT run if there are less than 3 registered participants. In this case, classes may be cancelled with less than 24 hours notice. All programs and schedules are always weather permitting and are subject to change. If necessary, please contact our Welcome Desk at 902-893-2224 for more information and schedule confirmation.
