In the fast lane

Swimming club members Ruby Welch (left) and Jayde Young (right) took to the pool on Wednesday, Jan. 30, at the Moab Recreation and Aquatic Center.

The Swim Club is a program designed to help children develop and refine swim strokes and skills, gain the confidence to be proficient competitive swimmers and have fun doing it, said swim coach Wendy Young. Practices are held twice each week.

Winter Swim Club is now over for the season, and the city pool closed on Feb. 6 for temporary repairs that are expected to take several weeks to complete. Summer Swim Club will begin when school is out for the summer. More information is available on the Moab Recreation and Aquatic Center’s website.
