Thanks for posting the link.

That works too.

I'm hopeful that we can embed AQUATICS into the new plans with PPS Community Schools. Three of the PPS schools that are to be "community schools" have swim pools: Westinghouse, Langley and Arsenal.

Any help you can muster is welcomed. I think the community engagement can begin in earnest at the pools. For wellness, sportsmanship, teamwork, and fitness. These swim pools are built, maintained, and sit idle for too many hours a week.

We can also deploy Obama and Sci-Tech and U-Prep where I coach. Plus, Oliver on the Northside where we hold the Saturday Swim School (in 2016-17 year, plus expected this year too). And, PCA / Greenway -- as it is close to Langley. That gives us 6+ pools. Plenty of water for all age groups and real devotion.
