A message this morning from Southwest Pool, the only city-run, year-round swimming facility in West Seattle:

With summer right around the corner (though it is hard to see through the rain some days), it is time to think about swim lessons. Have your kids brush off their skills and get ready for a fun and safe summer in the water. Whether your child is new to the water or they are swimming laps we have a class at an appropriate level for them. We even have classes for adults! Also, don’t forget to check out the other courses offered at our six West Seattle community centers.

From classes to special events like Easter-egg hunts, the full spring brochure for those community centers (Alki, Delridge, Hiawatha, High Point, Southwest, plus South Park) is online – browse it here (PDF). And for more info about the pool, you can drop by at 2801 SW Thistle or call 206-684-7440.
