COVID-19

Dream Big Swim Academy and COVID 19

We are all aware of how serious our global situation is, and we at Dream Big Swim Academy are doing what we can to be safe for our students, families, and staff, not only in the water but as a part of the community.

We maintain social distancing when possible and have staggered lesson times to help our families do the same. Our equipment is sanitized daily, and the pool is chlorinated at higher, but very safe standards.

Face shields will be worn at all times to be compliant with current state laws.

Summer Swim COVID-19 Procedures

Lesson Protocol for Summer Swim in Mingo Junction

Lesson will begin in June.

Due to the COVID procedures and lessons being held at a home pool, several things are going to change while keeping our original policies in tact. In order to keep things sanitary and safe:

1. There will not be changing rooms/restrooms available. We will have some "changing tents" if you must change students but there will not be a restroom available. No exceptions (There is a port-a-jon across the street if it's an emergency.)

2. Only ONE person per FAMILY is to bring students to lessons. So, if you have 2+ kids - only one person may bring them. Siblings or other individuals who are not participating in lessons will be asked to leave. There will be no exceptions.

3. Each student will have their temperature taken before each lesson. Students with temperatures over 99°F will not be permitted to enter the pool & lessons will be forfeited.

4. Students will be required to provide their own goggles. Goggles must have 2 straps in the back and be made of rubber/silicon. We will also have them available to purchase.

5. Please wear a mask.

6. All of the other policies and procedures that we normally have will also remain in place. This includes our make up lesson/cancellation policy, illnesses, vomiting, diarrhea and ESPECIALLY the double diapering. NO student under 3 years of age (36 months) will be permitted in this pool without the correct double diapering.

*All policies will be enforced in addition to these measures. Policies and prevention measures are subject to change without notice, in accordance with laws, and/or our own safety measures.
