community swimming safety talks for your group

FOSS In Your Community

See what we’re up to…

Our mission is to be the best swim program in every community.

A lot of our staff live in the same community as our swim schools and enjoy contributing their expertise and time helping maintain an inviting place to have family and live.

We reach a variety of groups each year. Come out and enjoy this years Miracles for Mitch kids triathlon event. Invite us for free to present water safety educational clinics to your social groups like MOMs Clubs, ECFE, MOPS, and the like. We have informative material to help you notice water hazards/dangers and help you plan on getting the safest enjoyment from all your water activities.

If you’re a Girl or Boy Scout troop, give us a call for your swim badge testing. For $6.00 per swimmer, we’ll host a 2 hour opportunity for your troop/pack to complete the circuit training as stated in your manuals for acquiring your respective badges.

Charity event at Foss Swim SchoolJust $20.00 can give one person in Ethiopia clean and safe drinking water for twenty years!

Please join us in our first ever event for Gifting Water!

Along with the Foss Swim School of Chanhassen, we are very excited about our joint endeavor to raise a goal amount of $15,000.00 (which would be enough to build three, clean-water wells in developing countries). MORE>



Foss Swim School lends support to the Miracle Kids TriathlonLake Ann Miracle Kids Triathlon Sets All-Time Attendance and Fundraising Records

Becky and Steve Chepokas founded The Miracles of Mitch Foundation in honor of their son, Mitch, who lost his battle with cancer. Mitch had noticed the financial strain cancer puts on families and asked his father to “pinky promise” he would do what he can to help those in need. True to there word, Becky and Steve discovered an avenue to help. Foss Swim School is a proud participant in the Miracle Kids Triathlon. MORE>



AbbeysHope_logoAbbey’s Hope Charitable Foundation Kicks off summer with a “Spring into Summer” Pool Safety Party

The foundation is in memory of Abigail Taylor. Abbey’s hope was that what happened to her would never happen to another child.
