Dare2Tri is looking for some volunteers to assist with a swim clinic for the veterans at the Hines VA.  These vets are blind, some also have amputations and spinal cord injuries. Volunteers will get in the water and work one on one with the vets helping them with their swimming skills or simply just getting comfortable being in the water.  The clinic is from about 9 AM - 11:30 AM on Thursday November 1 and is at the Waters Edge Pool located at 545 John Street Bensenville, IL  60106

Please email me at [email protected] if you are available and interested in helping out with this clinic.

Incerdible cause!  Close to my heart as my Grandfather has been in and out of Hines for a few years now.  Do you need any kind of certification or coaching experience to do this?

I'm in too.  VA is near and dear to my heart.  Vets are patriots~ this is the least I can do for a few hours out of a week.

No certifications necessary.  Just email Keri that you want to help and she will get in touch with you.  She is in New Zeland right now for a days supporting the world championships.
