Swim Lessons 

Lessons this season will be offered Monday & Wednesdays, Tuesday & Thursdays and Saturdays in two week intervals.  Please consider any vacations or other camps your children have during these sessions.  We will not be doing make-up sessions unless there are unsafe conditions or some other unforeseen circumstances, in which case you will receive a Remind letting your know of the cancelation and the make up day (typically the Friday of the canceled week).  We do not cancel for rain, but if there are thunderstorms at the club you will receive a Remind.

Group Lessons are a great way to get your swimmer ready to be safe and have fun around the pool.  Group lessons typically have about 5 swimmers per instructor and are $85 per swimmer per session.  Our sessions of group lessons schedule in two (2) week intervals and are held on either Mondays & Wednesdays or Tuesdays & Thursdays.  Group lessons are also available on Saturdays, in two (2) week intervals, and cost $55 per swimmer per session.  All session are scheduled before CSC regular pool hours.  See below for sessions and registration.

Private lessons are also available and allow you to work with your busy schedule. You can register for Private Lessons here and our CSC swim lesson chair will work with you on instructor and scheduling.  The initial cost for private lessons is $125 which includes a registration fee and four (4) lessons.  After the initial registration for private lessons and upon completion of your four (4) lessons, the registrant will be able to schedule further private lessons with their instructor.

Swim Team - CSC Dolphins

SWIM TEAM is for those swimmers who can swim 2 full lengths in 2 competitive strokes.  It does not have to be pretty or perfect - they just have to be able to get across the pool.  JR. DOLPHINS is our pre-team and swimmers need to be able to swim the width of the pool.  If your swimmer doesn't fit either of these requirements, check out our SWIM LESSONS. 

We are thrilled to have you be a part of the CSC swim family!  Please contact the swim chairs with any questions about swim team at: swim@cranbrookswimclub.com.

Please read the swim team Handbook for in depth information about the season.

Northwest Suburban Swim League (NSSL) - Cranbrook Swim Team is a member of and competes in the NSSL. Information about the league including participating clubs, meet schedules, meet results, directions to clubs and more can be found here:
