Future SWIM TEACHERS: 2001–Danielle ORLOWSKI taught her Classmates the Sidestroke when we ran out of time at the end of the Season. In fact, she did such a good job that one of them aced her out for the "Best Swimmer" that year. 2001–Tom NGUYEN, starting as an Adult Fearful Beginner learned quickly thru Graduation in one summer. Then he shared his new swimming skills with non–swimming friends & co–workers. He even went into Surfing & SCUBA. |

It is significant to notice that the same faces keep popping up for multiple "Hall Of Fame" Honors. Usually, ATTENDANCE, PLEASANT PARENT and/or LONGEVITY are among them.
