GREENPOINT, BROOKLYN — The Greenpoint YMCA is offering free water safety classes this week for adults, teens and kids who don't know how to swim.
Students will have a chance to get into the YMCA's pool, where they'll be taught techniques for how to stay afloat and get out of danger in a body of water.
(Those interested in taking the next step can also sign up for swim classes at the YMCA.)
