Swimmerman Swim School to Open New Location in Hapeville
Swimmerman Swim School is opening its newest location in Hapeville on June 13. The facility brings swim lessons and water safety education to families across South Metro Atlanta.
The school helps children and adults develop swimming skills, build confidence in the water, and strengthen water safety awareness. It provides year-round lessons for all skill levels.
“Drowning is the number one cause of death for children under the age of four. Every child should learn to be safer in the water, and we aim to make the experience joyful and fun,” said Melina Slotnick, Swimmerman’s Founder. “We’re excited to become part of the Hapeville community and provide a resource that will positively impact families of South Atlanta and the surrounding area for years to come.”
Along with the opening, the school has launched a Swimmerman Scholarship Program. The initiative will provide more than $20,000 in swim lesson scholarships for students from local schools.
