Swimming Lessons

How is your SUMMER? Is it HOT? Well, it's COOL in the swimming POOL, and you'll meet the nicest PEOPLE too. But first you need to take LESSONS. After learning just 112 "basics" and several "glossary terms", you can swim in the SHALLOW part of the pool. Think of all the FUN you'll have, watching your friends swim in the DEEP water.

Don't delay! Get started TODAY so you can swim in the shallow water (with all the other new swimmers) several MONTHS from now. Of course, by then the weather will no longer be HOT and the water will be too COLD. But that's okay. We wear the long traditional swimming outfits from the 1940's. They'll keep you warm in all kinds of weather.

And in just a few short YEARS, you can become a REAL swimmer and join your friends in the DEEP end.

Well, that's our sales pitch, so what are you gonna DO? Are you gonna show up for swimming lessons, or WHAT?

REALLY?? You're gonna actually SHOW UP? WOW! Hardly anyone EVER shows up! This is exciting! Your first lesson is next January! Until then, please enjoy your long hot SUMMER. And please stay OUT of the POOL until AFTER you finish lessons.

Good-bye for now. I'm gonna go COOL OFF in the DEEP water. Have a nice hot summer!
