Course Description

Learn to Swim: Evening Group Swim Lessons - Summer 2026

UNH Campus Recreation offers Summer Evening Group Swim Lessons for kids ages 3-13 in one 4-week session (8 lessons) and one 3-week session (6 lessons). Lessons are held Tuesday & Thursday evenings at 5:35pm or 6:15pm. Full payment is required at the time of enrollment.

These lessons utilize the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim curriculum & level system from levels 1-6. Lessons are focused on life saving skills and becoming comfortable in an aquatic environment in the lower levels, and work up to stroke development and swim team preparation in the upper levels.

You will be asked to indicate a Swim Level when completing the CampDoc registration questions (see below for more information on CampDoc). Pre-school lessons are for ages 3-4; youth lessons are for ages 5-13. If you are unsure what your child's Swim Level is, select "Unsure” or consult the Swim Level Chart. All swimmers are observed on the first day of lessons and may be moved if the level chosen is not appropriate for the swimmer's ability.

In the event of cancellation due to inclement weather, a make-up session will be scheduled. Parents/guardians will be notified via email if a lesson is canceled and rescheduled due to inclement weather.

All summer lessons are held at the UNH Outdoor Pool. Access to the pool is from the front entrance of the Hamel Recreation Center (HRC), 5 Edgewood Rd, Durham NH. Pool users must check in with welcome center staff upon entering the HRC.
