Location & Timing
We use two private pools in Hood River, OR during the summer season. Classes run between 10:00 AM and 5:15 PM.
Pool location details will be emailed to you prior to the start of your session. To help maintain a smooth class flow and ensure safety around the pool area, we kindly ask that you arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before your scheduled class time.
Swim Gear Requirements
All non-potty trained children are required to wear Happy Nappy swim diapers, which are the only suits we’ve found that reliably contain accidents and keep our pool environment safe and clean.
We sell Happy Nappy suits at the pool (for ages 3 months – 4 years), or you can order them online through our affiliate link:

Makeup Class Policy
We strive to provide consistent, high-quality lessons for all swimmers. Due to our structured schedule and limited pool access, makeup classes are only offered in the event of a pool closure or an instructor illness or absence
We understand that life happens, but to maintain fairness and program integrity, we are unable to offer makeup classes for other reasons such as travel, illness, or scheduling conflicts.
Thank you for helping us create a focused and supportive environment for every child.
Pool Etiquette
To maintain a calm and respectful atmosphere around the pool, please refrain from taking phone calls during class time. The sound can disrupt the learning environment for swimmers and instructors alike.
We’re thrilled to welcome you to the Held in Water community and look forward to a season of joyful, confident swimming!
