AQUATICS: SWIM LESSONS

B HEALTHY BROOMFIELD

AQUATIC HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICIES

• Kids ages 3 years and younger MUST wear a swim diaper

• Take a full head and body shower before entering the pool.

• Do not enter the pool if you show any signs of illness or diarrhea within the past two weeks.

• No prolonged underwater breath holding.

• All children 6 and younger and non-swimmers regardless of age, must be accompanied in the pool by a paying adult. The adult must be in the pool with the child or non-swimmer at all times and stay within arms reach. Direct parent supervision is required at all times. Children 7-11 years old who know how to swim independently, must have a parent or adult present in the pool area.

LEARN-TO-SWIM PROGRAM

Broomfield Aquatics offers the American Red Cross LearnTo-Swim program to provide a safe, fun environment for your child to learn the fundamentals of swimming as well as learn self-confidence, personal development, water safety and learning a lifetime skill that can enhance your child’s life.

SWIM LESSON LEVEL GUIDE

How many classes should I sign up for? When registering for consecutive sessions of the American Red Cross LearnTo-Swim program, it is recommended that participants sign up for the same class level at least two times. Due to the high demand for swim lessons, space cannot be guaranteed for your child to move up or down after your initial registration. Please talk to the instructor about your child’s progress and utilize the waitlist process whenever possible if classes are full. Classes will be increased or added due to demand and instructor/space availability. Makeup classes, credits or refunds are NOT offered for missed swim classes, inclement weather, or other unforeseen circumstances.

Top 10 Active Outdoor Ideas

Spring 2023

Check out these ideas for fun outdoor activities on open space, parks, and trails. These activities focus on movement, fun, and community!

1. Make nature observations on iNaturalist.com! Take a picture of any plant, animal, or other living thing, and post it on Broomfield’s iNaturalist page. iNaturalist users can also help identify unknown species. Read more about this fun app at Broomfield.org/iNaturalist

2. Watch a previous Open Space Speaker Series event. These series cover wide ranging topics in the natural world. Check out previous speakers on Broomfield.org/SpeakerSeries.

3. Learn more about local birds and engage with birders with the Broomfield Bird Club at BroomfieldBirdClub.com. The Club organizes outings to nearby natural areas and hosts meetings and presentations on local bird life. When you are on a walk, listen for birds singing and compare some of the different songs. Audubon’s Guide to North American Birds has detailed photos and sound clips of birdsongs to help you get started.

5. Have a local wildlife question or concern? Contact a Broomfield Wildlife Master. Local residents volunteer their time to answer your questions about wildlife concerns or conflicts for residents. Call 303.464.5554 and leave a message on a voicemail. A volunteer will call back to respond with helpful information.

6.Take time-lapse photos during the changing seasons. The days are getting longer; Spring Equinox is March 20, 2023. Pick a tree, view, or nature spot you like and document the changes with daily pictures as spring arrives.

4. Visit a Bike Repair Station along the trails. Use one of the bike repair stations to fix and maintain your bike! These helpful resources can be found at four sites throughout the community.

These are located at: •US 36 Bikeway Interlocken; •McKay Lake Bike Park; •Arista (by US 36 Pedestrian Bridge); and •Paul Derda Recreation Center.

Look for the repair symbol in the 2021 Broomfield Trails Map key.

7.Use the Broomfield Voice page to get involved. The Open Space and Trails Department is currently working on two management plans: Open Space, Parks, Recreation and Trails (OSPRT) Plan Refresh and the Raptor Management Plan. Learn more and get involved at BroomfieldVoice.com.

8.Learn to navigate the stars. The night sky in your backyard or nearest open space will change a little day by day! Search for free guides in your app store, such as SkyView Lite, Star Walk 2, or Night Sky to help you learn the constellations above you.

9.Locate one of your favorite peaks as you look out to the west at the Front Range. Use the Peak Finder graphic at Broomfield.org/PeakFinder to discover the different peaks you can see from Broomfield.

10.Notice the different types of buds on trees and shrubs. How are they different from Spring? Summer? Fall? Watch as these plants transform from season to season.
