Swim to Summer 2010 (March 29 - May 2, 2010)

2009 Weekly Challenges & Prize Information

Earn Cool Rewards While Working Out at the Pool!
Aquatic exercise has many healthy benefits: low impact exercise, total body work out, increased cardiovascular endurance, to name a few. Most think of aquatic exercise as being just swimming laps. While this is an option, there are alternatives for every skill and comfort level. The Swim to Summer 2010 program (5 week long) offers everyone a chance to use water to exercise, whether you are starting from scratch or are an accomplished swimmer. Starting on Monday, March 29th and running through Sunday, May 2nd, YOU can choose your path to fitness.

How to Participate:
Step 1: Register online or in-person starting Tuesday, March 23, 2010! Register with a RS lifeguard at the SRSC-CBAC or HPER-Royer Pools. You can sign up for one of two skill level groups:
Cream (10,000 yards = 400 lengths or 80 lengths/week)
Crimson (30,000 yards = 1,200 lengths or 240 lengths/week)

Step 2: Track each work out and record the total distance (in yards or lengths) on the tracking log provided to you. Have a designated lifeguard initial the log after completing each workout. For those attempting the weekly challenges, let a designated lifeguard know when you attempt the challenge. Upon successfully completing the challenge, a designated lifeguard will place a sticker on your tracking log. You can attempt the challenge as many times as you wish during that week, but you will only be entered into the prize drawing once if successfully completed.

Step 3: Upon completing the Cream or Crimson program in your five-week log, place your log in the Swim to Summer box at SRSC or HPER by Sunday, May 2nd. You will be eligible to win 1 of 2 prize packs valued at over $50 each! Winners of the prize drawing will be notified by e-mail.
