Help children with disabilities learn basic swimming skills and feel comfortable in the water. Volunteers will work one-on-one with children ages 5-15 to provide a safe and fun learning experience. Volunteers must know how to swim and be comfortable in water. Children will be working on learning how to enter the water safely, put their face in the water, learn basic strokes & beyond depening on the ability of the swimmer. Saftey is number one, but having fun and getting to know the swimmers and sharing their accomplishments is the best part of being a volunteer.
