Let's give some -credit
where credit is due. The
Clinton Community Pool is
now in full operation - seven
days a week: Under the able
supervision of Pat Cummings
and her assistant supervisor
Elizabeth Thompson - there
are two instructors. Jennifer
Ander-son and Marc Bernier
and two leaders who also aid
in instructing - Sheila Arnston
and Mary Anne Cummings,
Sharing the lifeguard duties
are Terry Flowers, Elizabeth
Reid, Steve Campbell and
Don Peterson. -
So when you leave your
little ones at the Clinton Pool
for their lesson its not a case
of "Sink or swim" but rather.
be sure, they will "Float and
swim".
