2025 Summer Season

Time spent around our pools is a fun time for all Lochmere residents.  To make sure that everyone is safe, Lochmere offers a variety of swim lessons.  For those really little ones who can't walk by themselves, we offer complimentary classes close to Fathers' Day.  As they become toddlers, residents have the opportunity to enroll their children group lessons.  As they become more proficient and want to be a member of the swim team or just improve their strokes, instructors are available to ensure that children receive proper training.

This is a great opportunity for grandparents to have their grandchildren learn to swim also.  Grandchildren are allowed to take lessons at Lochmere.  However, the resident grandparent must be at the pool for the entire swim lesson.  Swim lessons are not available to non-residents.

 COMPLIMENTARY INFANT TODDLER CLASS

This level of class is for children under the age of 2 and their parents. Parents must attend and participate. The class emphasizes skills, games, and fun in the water. It develops a child’s comfort level in and around the water. No previous experience is necessary.   A swimming diaper and rubber pants are required by any infant/child not toilet trained.

This class is offered on a complimentary basis during the season.  This year's class will be held on Saturday, June 14.   For more information and to register, please visit HERE.
