Swim Programs

Take advantage of Green Chimneys’ spectacular indoor pool with community swim programs for all ages!

Green Chimneys Swim Programs offer opportunities to learn water safety, develop beginner-to-advanced skills, and enjoy recreational swimming, all year long.

Learn to Swim teaches aquatic skills and water safety to swimmers from 3-1/2 years old and up through Certified American Red Cross Instruction.

An all-inclusive American Red Cross Lifeguarding Course and Water Safety Instructor Training are available to ages 15 and up. Courses meet all requirements for first-time certification and re-certification.

Recreational pool access is available through our Public Swim program.

Swim Programs are offered only at the pool on Green Chimneys’ Brewster Campus.

Brownie

With the completion of an elaborate new habitat built by Green Chimneys’ woodshop students, the Farm Science classroom was able to welcome Brownie into her new home. Brownie previously lived alone in her cage in the farm and wildlife office, but guinea pigs do best in larger environments. The new habitat allows her to live in a herd as she would in the wild, with many places to hide and ways to practice her skills. Brownie has always been a social creature, and she has taken over the guinea pig herd but is a very peaceful leader.
