YMCA Swim Lessons teach kids more than how to
swim. Thousands of area children have learned
how to swim and how to be safe in the water
by participating in progressive swim lessons
offered through the Y. At the YMCA, not only
do children learn how to swim and practice water
safety guidelines, they also learn the core
values of the YMCA and its mission. These values
are caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
The objectives to Parent/child, Preschool, and
Youth lessons are: fun, exercise, parent education,
water adjustment,
boating safety, safety education, and use of
personal flotation devices.

competition and development of mind, body and
team spirit.
The
Barracudas participate in the Winter ‘Y’ League
Swim Meets, which are dual team meets. The team
is a member of the Southeast Ohio/West Virginia
Cluster. The season is comprised of home and
away dual meets against other YMCA Teams. We
offer a Winter and a Summer swim league. Swimmers
who qualify can compete at the YMCA Ohio/WV

the YMCA National Championships
traditionally held in Florida.
