Learn To Swim  
The City of Wheeling offers one of the best Learn-To-Swim programs in the Tri-State area.  The cost is a nominal $10 - now that’s a bargain you can’t pass up! Sessions are open to children ages 3 and up. Each session is scheduled to last for two weeks and runs Monday - Friday.

We offer classes from beginners to advanced swimming levels. There will also be pre-school classes for children 3 - 5 years old (a parent must accompany child into the water). The classes are taught by qualified Red Cross Water Safety Instructors and lifeguards.

Registration is available at wheelingrec.com and a certificate will be given at the completion of the classes.
