Letter: Red Cross learn to swim program needs volunteers
Icon viewers:
Summer is here and so is 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 encouraged 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 16 for 2 weeks, Monday through Friday each week.
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:) A training session will be held on TUESDAY, July 10, from 9-11 am.
For more information please call 419-634-3786. Please leave your name and number. You will be contacted with details.
Thank you to the Village of Ada for providing the pool facility and the Ada Kiwanis Club for sponsoring the lessons.
Please consider giving back to the Ada Community. Volunteering is a very worthwhile activity... Pay back or even pay forward!
