Who are the instructors?

Our swim instructors are our very own lifeguards who your children know and love.

Our tennis instructor is Springton pro Keith Fox. All instruction is geared for your child's pleasure, exploration, and learning at an incredible value.

Why are we inviting non-members to take lessons?

To promote membership at Timberwyck and provide a service to our local community while earning revenue for the benefit of our club.

Why are we offering guest passes to the community, shouldn't they pay for a full membership like us?

As a courtesy, we are allowing non-members to visit on the day of a lesson using guest passes which are pre-purchased, 10 for $70. This courtesy reminds non-members that they are not invited to stay and swim without passes and encourages them to try out the pool and consider membership.

What is the pricing advantage for members?

Non-members pay a $15 registration fee per child for the season.
