East Meadow, NY – Building upon his Fit Nassau initiative to help residents live a healthy lifestyle, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano has released the registration dates for the 2016 Spring Session Children’s Swim Lessons at the Nassau County Aquatic Center at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow.

** NEW REGISTRATION PROCEDURES ** We will NOT be holding a lottery for swim lessons for the Spring session. Instead, we will have a 1-day first-come, first serve registration line for lessons.

CHILDREN’S SWIM LESSON REGISTRATION:
Saturday, February 13, 2016: 9:00 a.m. (doors open at 6:00 am).

• Leisure pass required at time of registration; we cannot look up your Leisure Pass. Only a parent/guardian or grandparent may register the child; you may NOT register a friend.
• Full payment due at time of registration (cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, Amex.) No refunds or make-ups are allowed, so please make sure you are signing up your child for the correct level.

PRE-REGISTRATION:
Pre-registration is recommended for new participants only. It does not guarantee you a spot in a class, however it will aid in making the day of registration go much quicker for you.
