Does it get any better than this?

I took advantage of lap swim this afternoon from 1:00-1:30. My husband and I had the pool to ourselves and it was glorious. The pool temperature is a perfect 82 degrees. The lifeguard arrived about 1:20 and swimmers began to congregate. At 1:30 about 15 swimmers of all ages were ready to enjoy beautiful sunny afternoon at the pool.

You could be swimming with us. If you are interested in a membership, call Karen Buxton 375-3140 for more information.

You don't want to miss out on a single opportunity to enjoy a swim. Dues must be paid by June 1st to avoid a late penalty. Contact Karen Buxton, 375-3140 to make arrangements.



The opening potluck is coming up soon. Come visit with your friends and neighbors and relax by the pool.
