FREE Swim Lessons For Economically Disadvantaged Martin Cnty Children

February 20, 2023

The Children’s Service Council of Martin County’s S.P.L.A.S.H. program provides free swimming lessons for economically disadvantaged Martin County children between the ages of 6 months and 14 years of age. 

In order for a child to participate, a parent or guardian must supply proof that their child(ren) reside in Martin County along with income verification. Children who qualify for free or reduced lunch at school, who are on Florida Kid Care/Medicaid, or SNAP are eligible for the FREE S.P.L.A.S.H. program. In addition, a parent or guardian must attend a water safety class to ensure the safety of their child(ren). 

See below for the class levels, dates and times. To register, please visit the front desk at the YMCA of the Treasure Coast, 1700 SE Monterey Road, Stuart 34996.
