Swim Testing
Swim License Test
Anyone 14 years and under must complete and pass the swim license test to enter the pool’s deep end.
Children 5 and 6 years of age may not test during regular testing hours. You must make an appointment with the Aquatic Administrator via email – jenetter@biparks.org . Children 5 or 6 must accomplish all test requirements and show exceptional endurance/maturity in water safety to pass. Passing does not exempt parents/guardians from being in the water with their children. Children under the age of 5 may not test. Children 6 and under must have their parent or legal guardian present for the test duration and swim.
Swim license tests are typically held on Saturday and Sunday at 12:15p and 1:15p.
