Free Swimming Lessons at Camp Takodah

The YMCA's Camp Takodah here in Richmond has been generous enough to offer FREE Red Cross swimming lessons to Richmond residents each summer. Residents five years of age and older are able to participate. Lessons usually start towards the end of July (around the 20th) and go through to the beginning of August (around the 7th). Camp Takodah is located at 55 Fitzwilliam Road in Richmond. Keep your eye out for signs at the entrance of the Camp for exact dates. After the dates are set registration forms are available at the Richmond town office.
