TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

You may have noticed the cost of advanced swim lessons going up lately, or perhaps you’re looking to add another sport to your child’s schedule to keep them active and engaged. We completely understand the challenges of keeping up with these demands! Whether you’re seeking an affordable option or a new activity to enrich your child’s routine, we would be absolutely thrilled to welcome your child into our swim family.

We’re always open to new swimmers, even if they join us mid-season. Your child’s journey to becoming a confident and skilled swimmer is something we’d love to be a part of!

5 Days a Week of

Pro swim instruction

Did you just read that right? Yes, we offer practice five days a week! Now, we don’t expect you to attend all five days, but when you compare this to the mere 30 minutes a week typically offered for the more advanced swim lessons, it’s an easy choice. 

Because, let’s face it, life can get pretty expensive. Our flexible schedule and affordable rates make it a no-brainer for you and your child to join our swim program!

Did you know we are a non-profit?

What Our Swimmers & Parents Are Saying About Us

My son.... LOOOVES swim team!

"My son didn't thrive in the classic team sports environment but LOOOVES swim team. I was worried he wasn't ready, but within the first week the incredible coaches had fixed his bad habit of bicycling his legs, that for some reason no amount of swim lessons could ever manage to fix! "

Coaches have grown her 10 fold in 2 years

Since my daughters joined VAC my older daughter made sections in various events. The coaches at VAC had her grow 10 fold in only two year stretch. My younger daughter is nipping at her heels and threatens to be faster. The coaches push them to their limits and my girls (love ) that. They might not before a big race but when they finish, good or bad, they know they accomplished something hard that not everyone could do

Greg Hoover

Parent & Board President

Thought he might be too young, but he proved me wrong!

My son has always showed interest in the water. He began VAC in 3rd grade and while I thought he might be too “young”, he quickly proved me wrong. VAC has allowed him to strengthen his skills, make friends and get stronger! His confidence continues to grow and he is now excited to compete in every swim meet. VAC coaches are very experienced and celebrate the smallest gains! The progress each swimmer makes every year is really amazing!

Restrictions (sort of)

Who can join?

We have little ones as young as five who could barely make it across the pool when they first started. Now, they’re swimming like pros, all the way up to our competitive high schoolers. Many swimmers have been with us since they were kids and now serve as amazing mentors to the younger swimmers. We’re also proud to offer scholarships because every child deserves the chance to swim, regardless of their family’s financial situation.
