Letter to the Editor: Red Cross Learn To Swim Program

Summer has arrived and so has the time for Red Cross Swimming Lessons!  As in past years the Ada Learn To Swim Program is in need of aides to assist with the lessons.

Ages 12 and up, including adults are encourage to sign up to help others learn swimming
skills.  As little as an hour each day of lessons is helpful.  Lessons
begin the week of July 8  for 2 weeks Monday through Friday each week with
the exception of the second Wednesday.

Help is needed on deck for paperwork as well as in the water.  You do not
need to be a good swimmer to help others...we'll help you as well:)
