Planning for New Aquatic/Rec Center The Cities of Covington and Maple Valley are tapping a Washington State grant to conduct a feasibility study this winter to understand and plan for future indoor aquatics and recreation in our area. The Citizen Steering Committee and the professional planning team have been hard at work over the past few months and are excited to share their findings as they’ve evaluated location options and identified possible facility offerings.

We are pleased to offer a comprehensive program designed by the American Red Cross. Classes are offered for all ages and all ability levels. Beginning levels focus on water adjustment and introduce basic swimming and water safety skills; these classes require an adult from the same household in-water with the student to provide support. More advanced levels concentrate on stroke development, stroke refinement and additional water safety skills. Lessons are 25-minutes long, except for Competitive Swim Lessons, which run 55-minutes. If you do not know which level to register for, please contact us at parks@covingtonwa.gov for a consultation. Ages 6 months-4 years 4-5 years 6-14 years 15+ years
