HANNIBAL, Mo. — Donations are currently being accepted to fund swim lessons at the Ronny Ferrel Aquatic Center.

The family of Ronny Ferrel, who worked at the pool for more than 55 years, asked that donations be made in his name to fund swim lessons, the favorite part of Ronny’s job. He passed away June 3, 2023.

Last summer all swim lessons were free. The cost this summer will be based on the amount of donations received. Swim lesson signup will begin at 8 a.m. April 1 and will be online only. The deadline to donate to swim lessons is March 14.

  • Session 2: 6:10-6:50 p.m. June 16-19 and June 23-26 
  • Session 3: 12-12:40 p.m. July 7-10 and July 14-17
