NEW TO THE AREA?

Are you new to the area? We invite you to stop in our office or give us a call! We would love the opportunity to meet you and let you know what we offer. We have many classes, activities, programs and leagues for all ages. Welcome to the community and we look forward to meeting you!

Director of the WAWM Recreation & Community Services Department

Thank you for 90 years of participation and support! In August, we had a fantastic day celebrating the 90th anniversary of our Recreation & Community Services Department. We were thrilled to see so many familiar faces and new friends joining us to mark this incredible achievement. The event was filled with memorable moments, including a rainbow after a rainstorm! A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to making this event a success! Your support and enthusiasm help us continue to provide top-notch programs and services to our community. We couldn’t have done it without you!

As we look back on our commitment to our community, we want to take a moment to highlight some of the exciting things that have happened during our 90th year of service:

• Due to program growth and needs, an addition has been added to the Recreation & Community Services Center along with welcoming six new administrative team members.

• Underutilized space at Irving Elementary School has been converted to youth sports fields for our growing outdoor youth soccer leagues. The improvements include restrooms, concession stand, storage and an irrigation system to keep the fields in great shape.

• The RAD Program fundraised and had a ribbon cutting ceremony for a communication board installed at the playground to make it more inclusive for everyone of all abilities.

As we look ahead to the 91st year, we are thrilled to continue the tradition of serving your recreation and community service needs with all the programs and events we are offering. Our team of 350+ staff members remain committed to our mission and values. We are very excited to welcome participants and community members to the new Activity & Fitness Center located at the former Lane Intermediate School. As that is a multi-phased project, there is more to come, so please continue to stay engaged and informed.

Thank you for your continued support! It is an honor and a privilege to serve the generations of residents and families through our programs and services.

American Red Cross “Learn to Swim” Lessons

Parent & Child Swim 2+yrs

Parents and children learn together to increase their child’s comfort level in the water and build a foundation of basic skills, such as getting their face wet in the pool, blowing bubbles, front and back floats and glides. This level is fun-filled to help introduce water safety concepts and encourage a healthy recreational habit. One adult per child is required.

Level 1: Little Beginners

Level 1 introduces first-time swimmers to the aquatic environment and helps them gain basic aquatic skills that are the foundation for later levels. Front and back floats, blowing bubbles and leg and arm actions are introduced.

Level 2: Introduction of Water Skills

Level 2 teaches basic personal water safety skills to help children feel comfortable in the water while improving elementary aquatic skills such as bobbing in the water, front and back glides and combined arm and leg action with assistance.

Level 3: Fundamental Aquatic Skills

Level 3 leads participants to success through fundamental skills such as floating and recovering to a vertical position. Participants will continue to increase their independence with treading and swimming on their front and back.

Level 4: Stroke Development

Level 4 will teach swimmers to do front crawl, rotary breathing and elementary backstroke the width of the pool. They will be introduced to deep water entries and simple dives, while continuing to improve their deep water treading skills.

Level 5: Stroke Refinement

Level 5 will help the swimmer develop confidence and distance in previously learned strokes while introducing new strokes. Swimmers will begin to develop scissor and frog kicks, underwater swimming skills and new deep water dives.

Level 6: Swimming and Skill Proficiency

Level 6 swimmers will practice their front crawl and elementary backstroke for 50 yards, backstroke for 25 yards and butterfly for 15 yards. Participants will continue to strengthen their frog and scissor kicks. Open turns are introduced and deep water skills are refined.

Level 7: Fitness Swimmer

Level 7 helps swimmers refine their strokes and skills so participants swim with ease, efficiency and power over greater distances. Participants will begin to incorporate flip turns into their front crawl.

Level 8: Intro to Competitive Swimming

Level 8 will introduce swimmers to what to expect in competitive swimming. Swimmers will learn to do starts from blocks, use equipment such as paddles and pull buoys and understand the terminology and format of competitive swimming. This is a higher level program that will build endurance.

YOUTH SPORTS

Consider Volunteer Coaching

Have you ever wanted to coach a sport and make a lasting impact on young athletes? Now’s your chance! Volunteering as a coach is a rewarding way to build connections, mentor and inspire the next generation of players.

The WAWM RCS Department is here to support you every step of the way! Each league is led by a League Director—an experienced staff member who ensures all players have a positive and consistent experience. The League Director assists volunteer coaches by handling practice planning, allowing you to focus on player development, teamwork, and providing every athlete with fair opportunities to learn and grow.

• During practice: You’ll focus on fostering player growth while the League Director takes care of logistics.

• On game days: You’ll manage player substitutions, assign positions, and ensure a fun, engaging atmosphere where everyone can thrive.

Time Commitment:

If you’re passionate about shaping young lives through sports, let us know when you register! All volunteer coaches will undergo a confidential background check. For more details, reach out to our Youth Sports Manager, Bobby Foreman, at 414-604-4968 or foremanr@wawmsd.org.

Indoor Soccer and Futsal registration opens Monday, November 25 at 8am and closes Friday, February 7 at 4pm.

What is the difference between Futsal and indoor soccer?

Futsal and indoor soccer are both played on hard surfaces; however, walls surround the indoor soccer pitch whereas futsal courts don’t have surrounding walls. Futsal is FIFA’s official indoor soccer game. It is small-sided, 5 vs. 5, played on a smaller pitch (size of a basketball court) with a smaller ball. No practice/games 3/24, 3/25, 3/26, 3/27, 3/28, 3/31, 4/1.

Student-athletes will work on building their fundamentals, teamwork and leadership skills while representing their school against local schools based on the conference their sport competes in. All participants must register with their attendance area school. All student-athletes will need a physical on file before participating in either the first day of tryouts or the first practice. If tryouts are required, participation fees will be due after the teams are announced.

• For 7th-8th grade girls and boys basketball and 7th-8th grade girls volleyball, Frank Lloyd Wright and West Milwaukee Intermediate will compete in the Jr. Parkland Conference.

• For 6th grade girls and boys basketball and 6th grade girls volleyball, student-athletes will have the opportunity to participate in WAWM RCS leagues. This aligns with the conferences we participate in for these sports, which do not include 6th grade interscholastic athletics. This creates a more inclusive opportunity for all interested athletes during their intermediate transition year as there is not a tryout process.

• Practices take place at the school you are registered at and scheduled in season between the hours of 3-5pm.

• Bus transportation will be provided for athletes to all away competitions.

HomeFit Workshop

AARP Staff - Recreation Center

AARP surveys consistently find that older adults want to remain in their current homes and communities for as long as possible. Yet barely one percent of the nation’s housing supply contains any “universal design” elements—such as single story living or a sink that can be reached from a wheelchair. That’s where AARP HomeFit comes in. Based on the free AARP HomeFit Guide (available at aarp.org/yourhome) this presentation can help individuals and families make their current or future residence–or that of a loved one–their “lifelong home.”
