It won’t be long before there’s a chill in the air, and with it, a number of fall seasonal programs will be underway, hosted by the Rapid City Parks and Recreation Department.
The city’s 2023 Fall Program Guide was released recently and can be accessed on the city’s Recreation Division page at rcgov.org.
The Fall Program Guide provides information on numerous activities, leagues and classes available at the Roosevelt Swim Center, Roosevelt Ice Arena and in the city’s parks system.
The Roosevelt Swim Center’s fall programs include water polo, fall swim lessons, water exercise classes, Bubble Nights for certified scuba divers, open swim dates and a new special event, the Pumpkin Plunge on Oct. 14 for youth ages 5 to 12. The Swim Center will also host Red Cross health and safety courses this fall, lifeguard and babysitter training, and CPR programs. Other Swim Center facility classes will focus on yoga, martial arts, exercise, fitness and conditioning classes.
