School Ends

School is finally over! Now I can start teaching Fishies for PSA! 

       This may be the last time to swim for a while since the college pool may be closing due to issues with piping. We hope that soon/eventually we will be able to afford a pool cover. Like other pools around Oregon, such as Mt. Hood's pool, we would be able to swim all year in a 50 meter pool and host many more meets increasing income. It all can start with an increase in swimmers. At PSA, swimmers who have been through the Fishies program or similar programs, help teach levels 1-3. I help teach level 1 with an adult mentor. Level 1 is for very beginners. The youngest I have taught was 3 or 4. Then the levels keep increasing until level 4. There are two "swim meets" separating each "semester" of summer swim. Many children enjoy them but it is understandable if they do not want to participate. The races are based on the children's level and skills (such as whether they can kick on a kick board or swim freestyle). If a participant is older, they could join Age Group which is less embarrassing for 10 and 11 year olds. Many children love our swim groups and continue on each summer and PSA would love it if your child joined too.
