AQUATIC HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICIES

• Kids ages 3 years and younger MUST wear a swim diaper

• Take a full head and body shower before entering the pool.

• Do not enter the pool if you show any signs of illness or diarrhea within the past two weeks.

• No prolonged underwater breath holding.

PARENT SUPERVISION POLICY!

Parents are responsible for the safety of their children at all times! All children 6 and younger and non-swimmers regardless of age, must be accompanied in the pool by a paying adult. The adult must be in the pool with the child or non-swimmer at all times and stay within arms reach. A lifejacket is NOT a substitute for an adult.

LEARN-TO-SWIM PROGRAM

Broomfield Aquatics offers the American Red Cross LearnTo-Swim program to provide a safe, fun environment for your child to learn the fundamentals of swimming as well as learn self-confidence, personal development, water safety and learning a lifetime skill that can enhance your child’s life. For additional information or if you are not sure what level to sign your child up for, contact aquatics@broomfield.org

CONFUSED ABOUT WHAT LEVEL TO TAKE?

Use this lesson guide to help you decide! Email aquatics@broomfield.org with questions.

Swim Lesson Level Guide

HOW MANY CLASSES SHOULD I SIGN UP FOR?

When registering for consecutive sessions of the American Red Cross Learn-To-Swim program, it is recommended that participants sign up for the same class level at least two times. Due to the high demand for swim lessons, space cannot be guaranteed for your child to move up or down after your initial registration. Please talk to the instructor about your child’s progress and utilize the waitlist process whenever possible if classes are full. Classes will be increased or added due to demand and instructor/space availability. Makeup classes, credits or refunds are NOT offered for missed swim classes, inclement weather, or other unforeseen circumstances.

BROOMFIELD DEPOT MUSEUM AND CRAWFORD HONEY HOUSE OPEN HOURS

Come explore Broomfield's History at the Broomfield Depot Museum and Crawford Honey House! The Broomfield Depot and the Crawford Honey House are two of the oldest extant buildings in Broomfield. Built-in 1909, the Broomfield Depot was the ‘live-in’ train depot for the Colorado and Southern Railroad. Originally located along 120th Ave. near the grain silos, the Depot has been run as a Museum since it was moved to its current location in Zang Spur Park in 1976. The Crawford Honey House dates to 1905. It was built by the Crawford family as a place to process honey from their apiary, which housed over 1,000 beehives during its heyday. The Honey House was renovated in 2022 as an exhibit and programming space and now showcases Broomfield’s agricultural history and the story of beekeeping and the Crawford family.
