Swimming Lessons

The boys finished their lessons for this past session today.

Declan didn't quite pass Swim Kids 4. He has to take a special class now - called "4 Fast" or something like that. Basically, he has all the necessary skills to move on but one. He doesn't have the distance down to move to Swim Kids 4 so this "4 Fast" is an in-between class that focuses just on strokes. We decided to put him in a 2 week session that starts in August - that's Mon-Fri for two weeks - should be fun - since it should be hot here in August.

Darby passed Crocodile and is now going to be in Whale. Since Darby is under 6 he's not in eligible for the Swim Kids program. It's actually not a good thing that Darby passed. He can't move beyond Whale until he's 6 which is more than a year away. We didn't sign him up for the class right away but we'll put him in a Fall session. He's going to be stuck in Whale so we didn't see a need to put him in a summer program. He'll get plenty of swimming at my parents house and at the various beaches we go to.
