Campus Recreation Summer Adventures

Our summer Learn to Swim program includes four two-week sessions running from June – August. Lessons are Monday - Thursday of each week and for 30-mins each lesson. Certified American Red Cross instructors teach swim lessons. At USD, we maintain small class sizes to maximize the attention each student will receive.

There are different max capacities set for each class level. Children must be at least 3 years old to join our swim program.
