Every year thousands of children enjoy the thrill of going swimming, and with our hot Texas summer, swimming isn’t just about having fun, it is also about keeping cool. This program maintains a scholarship fund to help those youth who do not have the financial means to participate in swim lessons. We believe every child should have the opportunity to learn lifesaving swimming skills regardless of the ability to pay. Teach a Child to Swim is an 8 week, 8 lesson aquatics program in partnership with the Red Cross and Dallas Aquatics, a division of Dallas Parks & Recreation Department.
