Swimming attire
Most bathing suits and trunks are acceptable. We ask that you make sure that your child’s swimwear fits snuggly so it will not hinder any movement. Children should not attend swim lessons with any type of built-in flotation.
Bathroom Use
We encourage all participants to arrive early enough to use the restroom before class begins. For all participants who are not potty trained, we required the use of a “reusable swim diaper” (imseVimse is one of many good brands available)
Why does my swimmer need to shower before getting into the pool?
The State of Maine requires all swimmers to take a good water soaking shower prior to entering the pool. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have stated, when swimmers shower away impurities they help reduce the risk of waterborne illnesses.
