In each session, we divide the swimmers by age/ability into a group that swims from 4-4:45pm and one that swims from 4:45-5:30pm.  Swimmers can attend as many days during the week as they like in their assigned time slot.  On Friday, all swimmers are invited to participate in "Fun Fridays" from 4-4:45pm.  If you are interested in learning more about our program at Lincoln Middle School, please contact:
