Dive into summer fun with Peoria's youth swim lessons. The city is opening registration for a summer filled with splashes and strokes, catered to youngsters of all swimming skills. Parents, mark your calendars—lessons kick off soon and will be available at three local pools: Centennial, Peoria, and Sunrise Pools.
Don't let the prices sink you - residents get a smooth deal at $28, while non-residents will have to shell out a bit more, forking over $36, as per the city's announcement. No room for procrastination here, as spots are expected to fill up faster than a kiddie pool on a scorcher. Once signed up, kids get a two-week crash course in the basics, paddling Monday through Thursday at 30 minutes intervals. And for those looking to grace the waters of Centennial Pool, you'll find it at 8061 W. Acoma Drive, with the Peoria Pool not too far off at 8501 W. Cholla St., and the Sunrise Pool rising at 21321 N. 86th Dr.

Peoria's not just about keeping heads above water; they're also tossing a lifeline to families in need of financial support. Limited scholarships are floating for grabs to cover the cost of swim lessons. Dive into the Youth Sports Scholarship Program (PDF), and don't let opportunity swim by.
