Volunteers Needed!

Dare2tri is looking for some volunteers to assist with a swim clinic for the veterans at the Hines VA.  These vets are coming from the blind group as well as the spinal cord injury group. Volunteers will get in the water and work with the vets to help them improve their comfort in the water and/or swimming skills.  The clinic is from about 9 AM - 11:00 AM on Thursday September 26th and is at the Waters Edge Pool located at 545 John Street Bensenville, IL 60106

Please email Keri at keri@dare2tri.org if you are available and interested in helping out with this clinic.

Thanks!
