Looking for Summer Fun?
SPLASH your way into summer! The entire family can enjoy fun in the sun while
swimming. Swimming is a great way to get physical activity and stay cool during
the hot summer months.
Benefits of swimming:
- Swimming burns lots of calories.
- Swimming uses almost all the major muscle groups, so it's great for resistance
training without placing a strain on the body.
- Regular swimming builds muscle strength, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness.
- Swimming is soothing, relaxing and relieves stress.
- Swimming is FUN!!
Fun games to play:
Water Frisbee: Divide everyone up into two teams. All you need is a frisbee and
two laundry baskets for the goals. One side defends, and the other tries to
score.
Water Hoops: Get two hoops, one on each side of the pool and play a game of
basketball. Only one rule: no one can have the ball for more than 5 seconds at a
time.
Race: Have relay races or underwater races!
Remember to be safe and obey pool rules.
