Wondering if your hearing aids are working properly?

We can test how well they’re performing with something called electroacoustic analysis. This means that we can check your hearing aids’ performance against the standards they are supposed to meet. If you’re having trouble hearing and wear technology, it might not be your hearing – your hearing aids could be the issue. Most practices don’t offer this kind of testing, but it’s the only way to know if your hearing aids are doing their job right.

TGA Premier Golf

Youth Ultimate Disc Camps from GRUPY

TGA stands for: Teach, Grow, Achieve – these concepts are the foundation of every program we offer. We invite you to give your child the advantage of learning and playing golf in an environment that will benefit them for a lifetime.

Throw a frisbee (disc) to a friend and have fun learning to play five-versus-five Ultimate with elite club and college players as the coaches for these GRUPY summer camps.

Ultimate is an exciting, non-contact team sport with non-stop movement similar to soccer, but is played with a flying disc (frisbee) on a field with two end zones similar to football. Youth Ultimate games are played with two teams of five players who throw the disc to open teammates down the field. Each team defends their end zone and a point is scored when a player catches the disc in the end zone.

JUNIOR GOLF CAMP

Age: 7-14 | Purple Park TGA brings the golf course to you, providing all the equipment for an exciting, outdoor, and fun-filled experience. Our award-winning curriculum helps kids ages 7-14 of all skill levels improve their golf skills while having a blast. Campers will work on key aspects of the game, including putting, chipping, and full swings, through fun drills and games that gradually increase in difficulty. Along with golf instruction, we teach valuable life lessons such as teamwork, sportsmanship, confidence, and perseverance – skills kids can use both on and off the course. With our station-based activities and supportive environment, every child will leave with enhanced skills, greater confidence, and a love for the game!

COMMUNITY EVENTS Superior Disaster Preparedness Workshops NATURE AND FOREST THERAPY All Ages | Community Park

The Disaster Preparedness and Recovery team is proud to introduce Nature and Forest Therapy to the community – an exciting milestone in the Town of Superior’s commitment to resilience, recovery, and well-being. This initiative expands our ability to offer meaningful, naturebased experiences that promote healing and renewal for the body, mind, and spirit.

What is Nature & Forest Therapy? Inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku (forest bathing), Nature and Forest Therapy is the art of immersing oneself in nature to support health, wellness, and overall happiness.

Through guided experiences, certified guides invite participants to fully engage their senses, fostering a deep and restorative connection with the natural world.

Research has shown that forest therapy can boost immune function, lower blood pressure and stress levels, enhance mood and cognitive focus, increase energy, and improve sleep quality.

Each guided walk provides a unique and profound opportunity for both individuals and the land to heal together – and no, this is not a strenuous hike!

Join us for this restorative journey in nature!

group swim lesson overview

The purpose of the Town of Superior Group Swim Lesson Program is to teach kids how to be comfortable and safe in water, and to develop their swimming skills so they can go on to enjoy a lifetime of swimming. We do this by focusing on the three pillars of Water Acclimation, Water Safety, and Stroke Development.

How Do I Enroll My Child?

The summer Group Swim Lesson Class Schedule can be found online at superiorcolorado.gov/pools.

If necessary, please reference the “Which group swim lesson class is right for your child?” chart to assist in choosing the correct class during registration. Please note that swimmers will be assessed on the first day of class and we might need to move your swimmer to a more appropriate level.

The online registration option at superiorcolorado.gov/pools is the easiest way to register and has the most accurate information on when classes are full, added or canceled.

Registration is on a first-come, first-filled basis. Our classes are small groups with no more than 4 swimmers per instructor in most classes, so they fill up quickly!

How Can I Help My Child Succeed in Swim Lessons?

The first day of class, swimmers’ skill levels will be tested to make sure they are in the appropriate classes. If we determine after the session begins that your child needs to be placed into a different skill level for the session, please discuss with the Site Manager supervising lessons. If there is room in another class (either current or future), we will make the transfer and the class roster will be updated. If we are unable to place your child into a different class, you will need to go online and request a class refund or household credit.

34

superiorrec.com

Each child progresses differently. Many swimmers take more than one session to master the skills needed to graduate from a level. If your child is enrolled in a current ongoing session and you want to register for a future session, please speak to your child’s instructor and the Site Manager before registering. Doing this will help prevent confusion or uncertainty down the road if it’s determined your child is not in the appropriate class.

If you have questions or concerns regarding your child’s lessons, including which level is correct for them, please talk to the Site Manager or reach out to the Swim Lesson Coordinator: Paul Garboczi at paul@elevationswim.com.

Registration Helpful Hints

Be sure to verify at registration that your phone number and email address are accurate. If a class is canceled, a waitlist spot opens up, or there are any changes, we will contact you by email. If your desired class is full, add your child’s name to the waitlist. We will open up additional classes based on the waitlist.

Class sizes are a minimum of three children and a maximum of four (Levels 1 - 4) or six (Levels 5 -6). Classes with less than 3 kids registered will be cancelled or merged with another class. If your class is cancelled or moved you may also request a class refund or household credit.

What If…

My child is sick? Please be considerate of other participants. Do not bring your child to lessons if they do not feel well. There are no credits or make-up lessons for missed classes.

Inclement weather? If a class is cancelled due to inclement weather you be notified by the Elevation Athletics Swim Lesson Coordinator. Makeup lessons will be held on Fridays at the same time as the regular class.

Other Options?

Private swim lessons are available for all ages.
