Bouncing into Spring…

As winter turns to spring we see a shift in how we feel and what we choose to do. We look forward to putting away our sweaters and long sleeves, giving way to the sun, the blooming flowers and bouncing…That’s right, I said bouncing. Whether it be on a trampoline, a diving board or even a pogo stick, this simple act can bring joy and possibilities.

I invite you to move away from winter hibernation and bounce into spring and a life filled with recreation and arts. It’s time to get energized, excited and ready for something new.

You can find a few ways to bounce into spring through the Town’s Recreation and Arts programs.

If you’re not sure which to participate in, I invite you to bounce through this activity guide and see what gives you that little bit of excitement. I also encourage you to bring a friend or a Tigger because bouncing through life’s adventures are meant to be done with good friends!

Enjoy this spring and remember to bounce!

“Life is not about how fast you run or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Where can I take swim lessons? The Town of Danville offers its Learn to Swim Program at two locations: Monte Vista Community Pool at 3131 Stone Valley Road, and San Ramon Valley High School Pool at 501 Danville Blvd.

When do I register? Online registration for incorporated Danville residents only will be available Monday, February 20, 8:30 am. Open registration begins Tuesday, February 21, 8:30 am.

How do I register? Online: Register online by setting up and logging into your account at www.danvillerecguide.com.

We encourage you to set up your account prior to the registration date. This will ensure that you receive the lessons you want more quickly. For assistance, call (925) 314-3400.

How do I select my child's class level? Read the Swimming Levels Table with qualifying age and prerequisite skills needed in the order listed. Register your child for the first class level that describes skills that s/he has not yet mastered. Call 314-3459 for additional assistance.

Will classes be held in the rain? Generally, classes will be held during inclement weather. However, the pool will be closed and classes cancelled if there is lightning.

What happens if my child passes the class, but I registered him for the same level next session? If there is space available, your child will be transferred to the correct level.

Is it possible to make up a class that my child missed due to illness or vacation? Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate class make-ups.

Can I request a specific teacher? You can make a request for a specific instructor, but realize that our swim instructors rotate between different pools, class levels and times. Due to the large number of classes we offer, we cannot guarantee we can meet your request, but we will try our best.

I am an adult. Can I take lessons? Yes! We offer private adult swim lessons at various times throughout the day at Monte Vista High School Community Pool. See page 13.
