">Vassars
Mens and Womens Swimming and Diving team is offering 5 groups of childrens
swim lessons and 1 group of adult swim lessons. Swim group placement
will be based on demonstrated ability during the first class meeting. 
Please send registrations as soon as possible. I cannot guarantee registration
to anyone as class sizes are limited.  Your best chance of getting
into a class (es) is to send registrations in ASAP.


Three important notes:  First, we are offering 8 nights of lessons..  Second, Vassar
utilizes a lightning/storm policy with regard to the pool.  In case of lightning, everyone leaves
the pool area (is encouraged NOT to jump in the showers) and the pool
is closed for a minimum of 30:00 following the last sighting of lightning/clap
of thunder.  In this scenario for lessons, we would delay the start
of lessons.  Third, all lessons will be taught by VC students. 
Thanks.  Lisl
