LEARN-TO-SWIM REGISTRATION AND POLICIESREGISTRATION INFORMATIONIndividuals may enroll in any open class listed in the bulletin.

If your child has any special needs or problems, it would be helpful if you wouldinform the instructor/Aquatic Supervisors, on the first day of class, so they canbetter work with your child.

If the class is full, you may ask the front desk staff to add your name to the wait list in the computer.

AQUATIC WAIT LIST The main purpose of the wait list book is to determine if there is a need to add additionalclasses. On occasion if there are openings in classes, or if we have the ability to addadditional instructors, we will call those who have their name in the wait list book.

• Having a name on the wait list does not guarantee that you will receive a phone call or a spot in a class.

• It is your responsibility to call the front desk at the end of a session to see if any spots have opened up. Many times children are transferred to other classesor decide not to take a class which results in spots becoming available. The aquatic supervisors will not check the wait list book until a few days before thestart of a new session with the intent of trying to fill spots that are still open.

• Please be aware that when phone calls are made to those on the wait list, registration is on a first come basis no matter what number you are on the wait list. This is only a courtesy call letting you know that at that particular time, there are openings in the class if you still wish to sign up. It does not mean that aspot is being held for you and the spot(s) may be filled by the time you call back.

HOLDS A HOLD spot is a roster spot reserved for a student in the previous Learn-To-Swim sessionwithin a season. There are no HOLD spots for those enrolled in Winter classes who wish toenroll in a Spring/Summer class, Spring/Summer to Fall or Fall to Winter. There will beseveral HOLD spots for each class, preschool and Level 1-6 during a session.

A HOLD cannot be filled until the class from the previous session has been completed.

A HOLD spot will be reserved for those enrolled in a previous session until 8:00 pm onthe last day of class at which time they will be open to the public. Each student mustprovide an Ehrnfelt Recreation Skill Sheet with the date/time and instructor’s name fromthe last class enrolled in to register for a HOLD spot.

LEARN-TO-SWIM RULESSwim participants and their parents must adhere to the rules of the Aquatic Center and thefollowing rules specific to Learn-to-Swim.
