Sorry - only one parent per child is allowed in the water. Preschool Aquatics Program Ages 3-5 Our preschool swimming program focuses on safety and developmental needs of young children. As your child moves from class to class, they will review and build on skills they learned, increasing their ability and comfort in the water. Starfish Beginners Your young child will learn to be more comfortable and how to move in the water. They will be introduced to holding their breath and submerging under water. Jellyfish Intermediate Your child will become more comfortable with going under water and pushing off the wall independently for a short distance. Angelfish Advanced In the final class of the preschool program, your child will start to swim independently for longer distances using a semi-developed stroke. Youth Program Ages 6-12 We use the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim program, a progressive, multi-level instructional approach that maximizes success and includes the most current biomechanics and stroke descriptions. By completing the entire program, your child will be exposed to the front crawl, elementary backstroke, breaststroke, back crawl, side stroke, butterfly, starts, turns and diving. Level 1 Beginners This level introduces basic swimming skills and strokes. This includes submerging independently, unsupported kicks and streamline on front and back, independent swimming basic front crawl while blowing bubbles. Level 2 Advanced Beginner Your child will build on the skills learned in Level 1. They ll strive for longer distances using the front crawl and improve their bubbles-breather technique. Level 3 Intermediate The backstroke and sidestroke will be introduced as your child continues to work on the front crawl. They ll try treading water, and even be introduced to diving! Level 4 Experienced Get ready for deeper instruction, as your child tries out the deepwater surface dive, diving off the block and swimming from the deck. When not diving, they ll focus on the sidestroke and increasing their endurance in the water. Level 5 Advanced Your child s swimming arsenal will grow with the breaststroke as they increase their endurance on the strokes they ve learned. They ll also get to jump off the block with streamline and learn about open turns, treading water and counting yards. Adult/Teen Ages 13 and Older Instructors will meet you at your level whether you re trying to refine a specific stroke or want to gain confidence in the water. Whatever your goals are, we ll help you meet them. Private and Semi-Private Swim Lessons Available for all skill levels ~ from terribly terrified to stroke refinement.

47 Community Engagement Volunteers & Active Citizenry Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn. ~ Ben Franklin VOLUNTEERING What gifts of the hands, heart or head would you like to offer? We'd love to talk to you. Neighborhood Beautification Do you have an eye for a beautiful yard? Each summer, volunteers traverse the community looking for particularly spectacular front yards - especially if they are water-wise. Parks and Trails Partners Even if your thumb is less than green, help is still needed to plant and care for flowerbeds or keeping a park or stretch of trail free from trash and debris. Snow Stormers Many city residents physically cannot clear their sidewalks when it snows. If you could shovel their snow - whether in the evening or morning - it would make a huge difference. Neighborhood Watch Learn not only how to keep your streets safer from crime, but also how to be a better neighbor. Northglenn already has 25 Neighborhood Watch programs - join one or start a watch up in your area. Northglenn Bike Program Do you have an old, unused or broken bike lying around, collecting dust? We ll fix it up before giving it to a family in the community. Volunteer Projects Have a volunteer project in mind, or need to volunteer to fulfill school or other requirements? Give us a call to see how we can help. Community Events City events vary in size and theme, but we can always use a smiling face and ready hand to assist with planning and event day activities. If you excel in organized chaos, this is for you! Youth Recreation It takes a lot of effort to put a game together but your time and commitment pays off. We especially need volunteers for coaching basketball and going on trips. Senior Center Support your peers by helping at the information desk, planning parties or providing a friendly face. Your wisdom, experience and joy are welcomed. Theatre & Cultural Arts Get involved with the arts. The Northglenn Youth Theatre could use help the night of the show with ticketing or ushering, or behind the curtains with costuming, painting and set construction.
