Board approves $10 hike to swim-lesson sessions amid high demand
Summary
Pryor Creek's Parks & Recreation Board approved raising swim-lesson session fees from $65 to $75 after staff noted heavy demand (about 80 lessons in June) and comparisons with higher-priced programs nearby.
The Pryor Creek Parks & Recreation Board voted to raise swim-lesson session fees by $10, bringing a six-lesson session from $65 to $75.
The chair opened discussion noting the current session length and staff indicated sessions are six lessons of 30 minutes each. "We did 80 lessons in June," a staff member reported, and members compared the town's rate to neighboring programs that offer more lessons at higher prices.
A board member moved to raise the session fee by $10 to better reflect staffing and instructional costs; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The director said staff will update promotional materials and pricing in the registration system after the board's recommendation is submitted to city council (if council approval is required). Board members noted the program is popular and the increase still keeps the town's lessons competitive on a per-lesson basis compared with some nearby providers.
Next steps: staff will implement the price change in promotional channels and registration subject to any required council procedures.
