[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We struggle to make summer swim work as a Dual working family. My DH is in the office 5  days with no remote. He can sometimes go in early. [b]We have to have our kids in camp[/b]. I'm remote but childcare is required unless the kid is sick.  We are lucky that our pool does have evening practice, but its only three days and head coach isn't always there.  Definitely less instruction and team building, but its something. We are only able to make it work because I work remote and can race to camp to grab in time.   I've drug my laptop to the pool many times in the evening, I can't work at the pool for morning practices as morning is my busy time and the youngers practice 9 to 10 am and camp field trips leave by 9:30. I think my oldest my quit next year as she's not improving at 11 and most of her friends quit. My youngest has swum A meets this year but she's older in her age group and is legal in one of the harder strokes.  She probably won't be an A swimmer next year as young in the age group.

You could get a summer babysitter. Plenty of people do it. At our pool there are at least 8-10 high school/college aged kids picking up younger kids from practice. [/quote]
