Parks & Recreation Offering Spring Swim Lessons at a Pool near You

Online registration begins December 1

The City of Albuquerque Parks and Recreation Department today announced the dates for spring swim lessons. Beginning Saturday, December 1, families can register for lessons online or at one of the City’s five indoor pools.

“It’s never too early to start thinking about pool safety,” stated Dave Simon, Director of Parks and Recreation. “Our top-notch swim lesson instructors want all of Albuquerque’s kids to be safe and have the skills necessary for some fun in the pool. And who knows, we may be able to inspire the next Katie Ledecky or Michael Phelps right here in the Duke City.”

Spring swim lessons are offered at West Mesa Aquatic Center, Sandia Pool, Highland Pool, Los Altos Pool, and Valley Pool. The cost for each session is $35. Online registration begins December 1, 2018 for all pools except Los Altos, where registration will begin February 1, 2019.

To register for spring swim lessons:

  1. Go to play.cabq.gov.
  2. Sign up for a household (or sign in if you have an account).
  3. Find the lesson that you are interested in.
  4. Click on ‘Add to Cart.’
  5. Proceed to checkout.
  6. Bring your receipt to the first day of lessons.

*If you need to register in person, please visit one of our indoor pools, where our staff can help walk you through the online registration process.
