[quote=Anonymous]Summer swim is an absolutely free choice. No one has to do it. But do you notice how little it costs in comparison to club swim? (Yes, at most teams you have to be a pool member, but presumably you'd be doing that anyway.) The reason why swim team costs are so low in comparison to the extraness of the experiences is that summer swim is ultimately a family experience. If you as a parent want to drop off and leave for every single activity, there are plenty of summer camps out there for you. But summer swim needs and expects volunteers. If you take and never give, yes, people will notice. At some pools there would be no talk about it; at other pools there might be. But it doesn't change the fact that swim team families are ultimately responsible for one another's positive experiences. If you're not willing to contribute, even in some small way, well, no one is making you join.[/quote]
