Bluefish is back for Summer 2023!

Sign up for an eight class session of free swim lessons with + POOL this Summer. Our Bluefish Program provides kids ages 5-13 free class tuition and swim gear. The program gets kids excited about swimming while + POOL works to provide free and safe access to the rivers surrounding NYC to swim in! All participants learn basic swimming skills, including: water safety, body position, leg and arm movement, treading, floating, breathing, timing and respect for the water. Sign-up is first come, first serve. You will receive confirmation by phone with your class placement.
