Letters to the Editor
Summer activities for kids
To the editor
I often hear people in Heppner say
there is so little for kids to do
especially in the summer Actually
there are several good programs
offered to keep kids busy and off the
streets including Vacation Bible
Schools, tattle league, swimming
lessonh. summer camps, and Swim
Team
Sadly. the community is not taking
full advantage of these programs I
am especially speaking of Swim
Team Without support and partici
pation the Heppner Swim Team will
cease to exist
Swim Team is a non profit com
petitive swimming program for
young people aged five through 18
Throughout the year swim team
parents work on fund raising pro
yets and plan for the summer swim
season The parents hire a coach
who works full lime from early June
through mid August teaching team
members the four competition
strokes diving, turns, and building
and improving skills Anyone inter
ested in age group competitive
swimming is welcome to partici
pate
There are two practice sessions a
day one hour in the morning and
one nour in the evening Swimmers
are invited to compete at meets in
other eastern Oregon communities
on the weekends as well as smaller
dual meets on weekn ghts. some of
which are held in Heppner It is the
individual's choice as to which and
how many meets he she attends A
swimmer who participates only by
attending practice and local meets
still reaps many benefits such as
regular exercise, swimming skill,
and making new friends
The coat of membership in Swim
Team is only $6 25 which includes
insurance coverage at all swim
meets and practices The city also
requires swim team members to
purchase season swim passes The
only other cost is 75 cents per event
entry fees at out of town Invitational
meets
Don't let the Heppner Swim Team
fadeaway get involved swimming
is fun and healthy
For more
information call Lottie Laughlm.
