[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Swimming comes across as so elitist. The expensive pay-to-play model is bad enough but then you have forced volunteering or an expensive payout? I can't see how my mom would have been able to handle that. I'm now married to a successful college swimmer and it is funny that she is the one who isn't interested in being involved in the toxic competitive swim culture. [/quote] Our summer swim is $125. So elite.[/quote] Plus the pool membership itself, the suits, the gear, etc.[/quote] Our pool is around $600 a summer plus $125 for swim team. That’s $725 for a place your child gets approx 5 days a week of lessons for 8 weeks + meets, social activities, a place the family can go, a place your child can go with friends, a place that keeps your child active, tennis court access, oh, and a free tee shirt, etc. ours also allows any suits.
