Any area swimmer (regardless of where swimmer lives) that would like to improve their swimming strokes can participate in the annual College Station Stroke Clinic. You can sign up for classes on Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday. Classes begin on March 30th and there are 8 lessons. Cost is $45.

Registration begins on-line or at the Central Parks office on March 16th and continues through Friday, March 27th. Register early so that you can select your preferred class time/days.  Click on the headline of this article to go to our on-line registration, or website is: http://parksweb.cstx.gov

 All four racing strokes (freestyle, backstroke, butterfly, and breaststroke) in addition to racing starts and fast turns and finishes will be taught. Class size is limited so that each student receives quality instruction.

 This class is for intermediate/advanced swimmers. A child that can not swim one full length of a pool without help will not be allowed to participate in this class. Our parks department does offer swim lessons for beginning swimmers. (Please note that beginning swimmers can have a very successful summer on our swim team as our inexperienced swimmers only need to be comfortable in the water and able to swim on their own for approximately 25 yards).

 Stroke Clinic is harder than swim team, because over half the lessons are spent on butterfly and breaststroke, flip turns, and racing dives.
