The 2025 season features an expanded swim lesson program, showcasing the City of Novato's commitment to providing comprehensive and inclusive swim instruction for all ages and skill levels. The program offers both group and private lessons, catering to the diverse needs of the community. Staff are currently getting certified in adaptive swim instruction to better support swimmers with autism, ADHD, and anxiety. Experienced and certified instructors will guide participants through a curriculum that focuses on water safety, proper technique, and building confidence in the water.
In addition to swim lessons, the Hamilton Community Pool will offer water exercise classes and recreational & lap swim times for the community to enjoy. The pool also boasts an exciting water play structure with a slide and various water spray features, perfect for children and families to cool off on hot summer days.
