Swimming lessons begin June 18 at Iola Municipal Pool and will continue until July 20.
This year the Recreation Department is trying something new by grouping students by age and not by swim levels. According to recreation activities aide, Kristy Sutherland, it was becoming difficult to provide students the attention they needed according to their age.
Private lessons are being offered, where the student has a one-on-one session with the instructor, and public lessons are also given where six students are in a group, Sutherland said.
