Recreation center hosts free swim lesson

Living in a city bisected by a river provides many residents with recreational opportunities not found in other locations, but also provides a number of water-related dangers as well.

For the sixth year in a row, the Green River Recreation Center is joining with facilities across the world to break a Guinness World Record in hosting the World’s Largest Swimming Lesson June 18 at 10 a.m.. The lesson is free for all ages and features water safety lessons along with the actual swimming lesson. Interested students are encouraged to check in from 8:30-9:30 a.m. the morning of the event.
