Elmwood Kildonans Pool 909 Concordia Ave. Winnipeg, MB, Canada R2K 2M6 Organized by City of WinnipegAbout this event
Description
Candidates continue stroke development with 50 m swims of front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke. Lifesaving sport skills include a 25 m obstacle swim and 15 m object carry. First aid focuses on assessment of conscious victims, contacting EMS, and treatment for bleeding. Fitness improves in 350 m workouts and 100 m timed swims.
Please practice healthy swimming behaviors:
*Please do not go swimming if you are feeling unwell, especially if you have an upset stomach
*Please do not bring your child to swimming lessons if they are feeling unwell, have diarrhea, are vomiting (or have vomited in the past day) or have a cough
*Avoid swallowing the pool water or getting water in your mouth
*Please do not feed your child before swimming and do not go swimming for one hour after eating
*Non-toilet trained participants must wear leak-proof swim pants or garments of a similar nature
In the event that our pool water is contaminated with fecal matter or vomit, facility staff are required to close the pool for 2 - 24 hours in order to properly disinfect the water and to ensure water quality is within the appropriate range set by the Public Health Act before swimmers can re-enter the pool.
A child repeating a level is very common, however, please speak with the deck supervisor if your child has repeated a level for the third or fourth time.
