June 14th, 2019
Last summer, YMCA of the Foothills and the Gorvetzian Family were proud to provide swim lessons to the community at no cost, teaching essential water safety and drowning prevention. This summer the tradition continues to provide free swim lessons as part of the Y’s Safety Around Water Inititiave.
This summer, lessons will take place at the Tierra del Sol campus in Sunland-Tujunga through August 15th in two week sessions. Lessons are available to all Sunland, Tujunga, and Sun Valley Residents non-swimmers. Lessons are free to children entering K-3rd grade and $25 for children entering 4th-8th grade.
To register for a session, simply visit one of the branches with proof of residency in Sunland, Tujunga, or Sun Valley as well as a recent report card to verify grade level for enrollment. Visit https://www.ymcafoothills.org/saw.html for more info.
