Fall Swimming Lessons
The director of the Stingrays Learn-To-Swim program would like to offer morning or early afternoon swim classes to homeschool families at the Brookstone(in Acworth on Mars Hill Road) pool this fall. She has a bubble that they install over the pool so it can be used until about the beginning of December. She said she would be willing to set up a special program for homeschoolers (possibly waiving the $25 registration fee). She also mentioned that the classes would probably meet 2x per week and would have a low student to teacher ratio. If you are interested in more information about this program, please contact Natalie at [email protected] .
