[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was interested in signing up my DC (age 10) for a program over the summer to supplement their summer swim team practices. It doesn't need to be anything too intense or heavy on the instructional aspect of it, even 60-90 minutes of swimming a couple of times a week would be fine.  Is there anything like this in Montgomery County?[/quote]

Curious -- why add more swimming when I assume he is swimming 5 days a week with his summer team?[/quote]

To clear a few things up, my pool does not allow kids to attend both the morning and afternoon sessions. Also, my DC will be at camp some of those weeks and can only attend the afternoon practices those weeks. There is no Friday afternoon practice, so we're talking 3 practices a week since the B meets are Wednesdays.  Not only that, but the afternoon practices are very crowded and from past experience there hasn't been a whole lot of continuous swimming in them.  So I would just like to be able to add a couple of practices to the 3 very basic practices.

To the person who suggested Fins, thank you, I will look into that.

We do camps that start late morning or in the afternoon only so we can do morning practices.[/quote]
I mean that’s great for you, but that doesn’t work for most working parents. 
OP, my kid also did FINS (although not in the summer) and enjoyed it. It was their springboard to joining club swim. [/quote]
Our summer team only has morning practices.  Many use an au pair or nanny.  But the practices are also very early so you can do a morning practice and still drop off at nearby camps by 9 or 9:30 AM. [/quote]
