[quote=Anonymous]It’s a lot, but imo the benefits for the children are worth it: —improves ability to swim and endurance for a lot of swimming (safety) —improves mental health as a great endorphin-inspiring exercise they can do for the rest of their lives —challenges and striving for improvement builds grit and resilience —the potential to meet new friends in different age groups —the potential to be mentored by a big buddy —provides structure to the beginning of the summer if you don’t already have it in place with camps —parents can gain new friends It’s not for everyone; but if you lean in and look for the positives it can be well worth it[/quote]
