Group swim lessons.

bloomington.in.gov/parks

These classes are for students of all fitness levels.

Many of the poses are seated, supine or prone and are held with muscles relaxed for several minutes to target the connective tissues of the lower back, hips, and hamstrings.

There is a focus on the breath, being present in the moment, relieving tension and letting go. Attendees may choose to participate either on floating mats in the pool, or on yoga mats on the pool deck. Intensity level: moderate.

Reserve a 12' × 12' party tent and table in the concessions area at Bryan Park Pool for a group or family gathering.

Rental rates are $25/hour, subject to availability on a first-come, first-served basis. To reserve the party tent at Bryan Park Pool, email pricec@bloomington.in.gov.

Am I a City of Bloomington Resident? A resident is any person who resides within the City’s corporate limits. Do you pay Bloomington property taxes?

Do you have a City of Bloomington trash pickup service? If you can answer “yes” to both of these questions, then you are a “City of Bloomington Resident.” If you are in an apartment and unsure if the property is “in-city” we can verify by checking your address. Even if your mailing address is “Bloomington,” it does not necessarily mean you are a City resident.

Please call the City of Bloomington Parks and Recreation office at 349-3700 if you have residency questions.

Fees and Charges City of Bloomington Parks and Recreation is a City of Bloomington department under the administration of the Mayor of Bloomington. City of Bloomington residents, through property taxes, make a significant contribution to the operation of the park system. Non-resident fees are charged so non-resident participants can fairly contribute to overall financing of the park system. Fees are listed separately for City of Bloomington residents and non-city residents. Residency verification may be requested.

Waiver Of Liability The City of Bloomington is not responsible for any injuries sustained as a result of participation in any department sponsored activity, or while using departmental facilities. It is recommended that anyone enrolled in a program or using facilities make provisions for adequate coverage within their own insurance plan.

Late Registration Any registrations received after the deadline date may be subject to a late registration fee.

Refund Policy No refunds are provided after the first day of a program.

All refunds are subject to a $2 fee. If the $2 charge does not cover costs incurred by the department, the refund may be pro-rated in addition to the $2 charge. There are no refunds on season passes. Full refunds are given on all programs cancelled by City of Bloomington Parks and Recreation.

Allow four weeks for refund requests to be processed.

Registration Procedures Complete the registration form, online or hard copy, making sure all information is current and correct. Parent/guardian information is vital in the event of an emergency. Include all pertinent information, including the program code listed beside the program information. Read and sign the waiver statement located in the lower left area of the registration form. Full payment is required at the time of registration. See above for payment methods. Forms will be processed in the order received. Register early! All forms must be received by the registration deadline. City of Bloomington Parks and Recreation is not responsible for lost or late mail. Registration receipts will be mailed to you. This is not a guarantee of enrollment, but an acknowledgement of your registration. We will contact you by phone or mail if there is a problem with your registration.
