World’s Largest Swim Lesson
June 22, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
The Kingsport Aquatic Center is once again participating in this year’s World’s Largest Swim Lesson – an event created by the World Waterpark Association to promote the importance of swim safety worldwide.
The swim lesson will take place at the Kingsport Aquatic Center at 2 p.m. on June 22. The event is free with a KAC daily admission.
Swimming is a life-saving skill for children and a vital tool to prevent drowning – the second leading cause of unintended, injury-related death for U.S. children ages 1-14. Research shows risk of drowning can be reduced by 88 percent if children participate in formal swimming lessons between the ages of 1-4.
