Daryl Wessner, Water Safety CoordinatorThe American Red Cross has been the leader in aquatic education since 1914.  To continue this tradition of excellence in swimming education, the American Red Cross brings you an all new, up-to-date teaching and learning system.  These swimming and water safety materials reflect the latest research in hydrodynamics, stroke mechanics, and motor learning.

The Red Cross aquatics program offers an extensive selection of courses for all ages, skill levels, physical abilities, and job related training needs.  A classroom of water safety course for children is also included.  Other swimming, water safety, and lifeguarding courses make use of classroom instruction and pool sessions.

Our coordinator is a Volunnteer who also works as an administrator in one of the county school districts.  For more information regarding swimming or lifesaving classes, please call the Pottsville Office (570) 622-9550 to leave a message and Daryl will get in touch with you.
