Wear your GMSS Colors and Receive a Cool Sticker!
|
In response to parent feedback, beginning June 1, swimmers sporting their Gold Medal Swim School t-shirts will receive a cool sticker at the retail counter. This will replace the "nibble" cookies currently offered.
We are proud of each little swimmer and their hard work. We hope they will feel this is a cool and fun post lesson treat. Cookies will still be for sale for $.50.

From the American Academy of Pediatrics: Parents should consider swimming lessons for most children between ages 1 and 4 in new guidelines on drowning prevention and water safety. This is an updated recommendation reflecting several studies that have shown a correlation between swim lessons for young children and water safety.
"In light of new research that has revealed that swim instruction for children 1 to 4 years of age may decrease drowning, it is reasonable for the AAP to relax its policy regarding the age at which children should start learning water-survival skills," the authors say in the report.
