HHA Swim Club for Kids

Young Hoboken residents are learning the life-saving skill of swimming. The Hoboken Housing Authority has created the HHA Swim Club for Kids and has joined forces with the Sky Club Fitness and Spa of Hoboken to make sure housing residents are given the opportunity to take swimming lessons. The lessons were offered at a discounted rate and open to all housing residents between the ages of 6 and 11.

“So many of our residents forgo swimming lessons because of the cost,” said Executive Director Carmelo Garcia. “Swimming is an essential skill and the earlier proper water safety is taught the safer our children will be.”
