Sign-Up Information


Please use this information when deciding upon which classes to sign up for. It is most important to select the appropriate skills levels for the children's classes. Class descriptions and skill requirements may change periodically. Participants with medical/physical needs require a doctor’s letter stating they are able to participate in the specific class. IOC will need to keep a copy of the letter on file.

Registration

Registration for these classes will be held on May 11th and 13th, between 5PM-7PM. Registration will also be held on May 15th, from 10AM-Noon, at Ironwood Outdoor Center.

Registration is a first come, first serve basis. Only walk-in registrations with payments will be accepted. Cash or Check only. Registrations will not be taken over the phone or through the mail. If one series becomes full a waiting list will be made. Due to very high demand, waiting lists will be limited to 5 students per class each series. Being placed on a waiting list is not a guarantee of acceptance into that class.

IOC reserves the right to cancel any classes due to poor enrollment. All cancellation will be announced well in advance.

Due to the nature of the series, make-up classes will not be available. In the event that you sign up and pay for a class, but find you are unable to attend before the series starts, you may receive a full refund. After the first day of classes for each series, no refunds will be issued with the exception of a doctor's note.

Please make all checks made payable to CRC/IOC.

Great for children on a swim team Note: Swimmers MUST have passed levels 5, 6 or equivalent in skills in order to take this class. (10 per class)

PLAYGROUND RULES DURING LESSONS

The playground will be open for waiting parents and children. Parents that want to use the playground will need to complete the waiver form. We ask that all parents wait under the pavilion during lessons (away from the pool where your children's lessons are conducted), except the first and last lesson of any series.
