Smilefish Swim School
Teaching the kids of Douglas County to swim & love the water since 2009
Smilefish has two instructors - Russ Marsh & Beth Moreau
Combined Russ & Beth have over 80 years experience teaching & coaching
Smilefish Swim School no longer offers Summer lessons
Rather than retiring from teaching, Russ' schedule has been reduced
to Wednesday morning & afternoon and Thursday afternoon.
He will also be taking a Summer break June, July & August.
Russ' teaches classes at the Hampden Inn.
Beth teaches Monday afternoon during the school year (Sept - April).
Beth is a school teacher so teaching swimming with a similar
schedule just makes sense. That includes not having classes Fall &
Spring Break as well as the occasional Monday holiday.
Beth's classes are for beginners & are taught at the Days Inn.
We will start taking registration for Fall classes at the beginning of August.
Families that were in Spring classes will have first choice to stay at
their day & time. If you're interested in classes, drop Russ an
email with your child's swimming level and we'll see what's open.
Smilefish classes meet once a week & are on going. There are
no sessions. This allows you to find a day & time that fits
in your schedule and to stay with it for as long as you like.
We have kids that stay for several years (beginner to swim
team) and we have kids that come & go a few months at a time.

Smilefish does not teach lessons in June, July & August.
If you would like to get started in the fall please drop Russ an email in early August. FYI - Last year classes were 90% full by mid-September & were completely full by early October.
