[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. We don't belong to any pool. I don't know any swim team or pre swim team information. We live near Quince Orchard HS. I can't swim, so I can't teach or show him how to swim. His summer camps ends at 6-6:30pm, and his school days ends at 6pm to 8pm with other activities. We can only do swimming on weekend on top of soccer season/swim class/other activities, so 1x/week group swim, 1x/week private swim & ocassional once a week go to pool is already a lot on our schedules. I have 2 other younger kids as well with me working fulltime.[/quote]

I can sympathize with the busy part, and the younger siblings!  But with a family schedule like that, you might not be able to enroll in summer swim anyway, really.  Practices are generally in the late afternoons (and the mornings, too, once school gets out).  You might be able to find a summer team that practices in the late evening, but after 6:30 sounds really late to me, especially for pre-team.  A better bet for you might be to switch his camp to actual swim camp (such things do exist, although I do not know of one to recommend off the top of my head), where he can have lots of pool time every day.[/quote]
