Swim & Gym

Family Swim & Gym


Family swim and gym is offered at various times throughout the week in the 4-lane pool and Sebring-Lewis Center gym. Families can also swim together during open swim times. No registration or additional fees apply; simply check the schedules page for open times and dates.

Toddler Play-Time


Parents and/or caregivers can spend time together with their children having fun on our play equipment and joining in games and songs. It’s a good way for the little ones to practice socialization with other children as they develop motor skills.

Register

Toddler Swim and Gym


Free play on our padded play equipment in the gym, followed by a parent/child swim lesson where your child can get used to the water with you alongside.

Register

Preschool Gym


Come and play with us as we keep your preschooler active. Together with supervised free play, and activities on our indoor playground/obstacle course, we will help support your child’s gross and fine motor skill development.

Register

Preschool Gym & Swim

When your child is a little bigger, you can bring her to this  drop-off class combination of a  swim lesson followed by supervised play in our gym playground (and maybe get a workout in yourself, or a little down time).

Register

Family Locker Room


Families with small children of any age, regardless of gender, can use our family locker room. Inside you’ll find locker-lined walls (be sure to bring a lock) and private changing rooms complete with a shower, toilet facilities and changing table, for parents or guardians and their children, and people with disabilities
