Our final day of camp was bittersweet. While we are so excited about the progress of our swimmers, we did not want the camp to end. Thank you again to all of our swimmers, families, sponsors, and our amazing volunteers who took the time to give so much to our program. Thank you iCanShine

We’d like to give a special thank you to Paris Elizabeth Dolinger and Tania Santiago Perez for running the beach portion of camp. Not only did our swimmers get to transfer their skills to salt water, but many learned to snorkel and paddle for the first time. They also saw some really cool creatures.

Today was such a big day for so many of our swimmers. We saw more comfort with snorkeling at the beach, and some extra excitement with jumping into the pool and swimming back to the wall. We even had a few jump in at the deep end!

Thank you to Mallory's Bakery for the delicious muffins for our volunteers this morning!

You know you live in an amazing community when your teachers are either the volunteers at Summer camp, or they just come to watch and cheer you on!

Today was water safety day. Our campers learned the importance of wearing a life jacket on the boat and how to do some of our skills while wearing them.

Special thanks to keysdeepapparel and Ugly Fish Apparel and Printing for the awesome shirts!

Our swimmers are improving their skills every day. A really cool part of the whole experience is watching as they get to try out some of their new tricks at the beach with family members.

Today was the first day of swim camp and it is off to a great start. We are feeling grateful for such an amazing team and so many wonderful families, and we’re definitely looking forward to some more fun tomorrow.
