[quote=Anonymous]As a comparison: In Texas, our local pool required a pass on a simple swim test for 9+ in order to swim alone. All they had to do was one full lap of the pool without touching the bottom. The 8yo took her test on her birthday, but her 10yo sister took her test 2 months later (and took 20+ minutes to lazily kick on her back, but it was still a pass). The older kids took their test the first day we were there, passes all around. I wasn't worried about the slow times. However, I also made friends with the director, and she would give me a head's up about busier times, so I could drop in.[/quote]
