Changes to Aquatic lesson registration These improvements include: • Adding skills as a pre–requisite to a customer’s profile in the registration system as a requirement for aquatics lessons and • Adding additional registration dates for aquatic lessons on a rolling registration. A rolling registration will provide an opportunity for participants to register for a lesson more frequently throughout the season and provide fewer breaks in learning. Registration for aquatic lesson programs will go as follows: • Port Coquitlam residents will have access at 8am 30 days prior to the first day of swim lessons. • General public will have access at 8am 27 days prior for the first day of swim lessons.
