Is your Daisy ready to splash and safely swim into summer? On Friday, May 29th, Daisies are invited to learn about swim safety and enjoy an evening of swimming at Goldfish Swim School in West Bloomfield.

 

During this event, participants will learn about Swim Safety from the Goldfish Swim School team and then Girl Scouts will have 1 hour of open swim!

There will be certified lifeguards on duty during the open swim, but there will NOT be instructors in the water for structured instruction during that time. Each participant (swimmer) will need to complete a swim test that consists of participants swimming across the short length of the pool and back (approximately 36 feet total), followed by about 30 seconds of treading water. If a participant does not pass the swim test, they will need to wear a life jacket.
