Klahaya

 

This summer we joined Klahaya.  I was a little hesitant thinking Jilly was to little to join the club this year. Paul on the other hand didn't want to go to the bottom of the waiting list again.  So we decided to go for it, and the whole family has really enjoyed it.  Paul goes to adult lap swim nightly, and the kids and I join him for an evening swim when it's over.  Jilly likes the baby pool best so she can dump water into buckets and walk around on her own.

 

Cam was a very determined little boy when the season first started to complete his "pool test" so that he could jump off the diving board.  So for the first few weeks we  practiced with him swimming the length of the pool which wasn't to much of a problem for him.  The challenging part was treading water after the long swim across for one minute.  He eventually was ready, and passed his test on the first try.  He was so excited and basically only swims in the "deep end".  When he jumps off the diving board nearly every time he dives down to touch the bottom of the pool.  The life guards have asked us if we are going to put him on swim team next year...We'll see, I really just want him to enjoy being a kid!
