The Super Swim Babies
team was organized by Jackie
Young last November. The
team has gained in popularity*
since it began doing benefit
performances.
The 22 members of the team
began their careers as Super
-Swim! Babies with survival
training. A child learns to
survive in the water first by
being able to turn face up and
breathe while kicking his feet.
Instructor Young empha
sizes that even with this
training no child is drown-
proof. Parents should always
be around a child when water is
nearby. With this training,
however, she says “Parents
gain an awareness of a child’s
ability and an awareness o f a
child’s limitations” along with
“learning how to help and assist
the child.”
A child must learn respect
for the water first. After he
learns skill and confidence
then water can be fun. “It is
dangerous to be taught fun in
the water first,” Young feels.
One Super Swim Baby
mother, Kathy Klaetsch of
Eagle Creek, Oregon says her
10 month old daughter, Jamie
“really enjoys the water now.
She was survival trained after
her seventh lesson.”
Rosemary Charley, mother
of one of the Warm Springs
babies, Nicole, says she wants
Nicole to become acquainted
with the water so she doesn’t
drown accidently. She says she
would send Nicole to training
sessions if they were offered
in Warm Springs.
Other parents queried agreed
that they would send their
children to swimming lessons if
they were offered in the area.
Lei’s mother, Charlene Calica
says, “I enjoy swimming so I
wanted him to learn. Lil Bull
Owl’s father, Tony Suppah, sas
he “wanted him to learn so he
would have an idea about how
to swim.”
Jackie Young says she is
looking into getting a training
program established in Warm
Springs. She says that Kah-
Nee-Ta is the perfect place for
it.

The Warm Springs Bravettes
took first place in the Warm
Springs Invitational Softball
Tournam ent held at the
C o m m u n ity C en ter th e
"weekend of July 18, After being
defeated by LaPush in the first
game the Bravettes came back
to win.
The Portland Saints came in
second at the tournament with
Nisqually third followed by
Queets.
“The girls did very good,”
according to acting-coach
Teddy Tanewasha. She said
many of the girls who were
practicing for the game were
u n a b le to p la y , w h ich
discouraged tnem. Only a
certain number can play at one
time. Those who practiced
most, exhibited the most skill
and were more experienced
were able to play.
The practice sessions during
the week have a purpose. They
enable softball players to
become experienced and to
learn from mistakes. Team
members must show up for
these practices to advance in
the game. They learn during the
practices to form ulate a
positive attitude and they learn
there is no such thing as “I
can’t,” Tanewasha says.
If in terest in so ftb a ll
continues and enough girls are
willing to make a complete
commitment to the softball
team a Warm Springs league
might be formed. “We could
have an. outstanding team,”
Tanewasha says.
