Just got home from a free swimming lesson event for the youngest. The local community rec center puts on free swim lessons for all kids, they had different stations dealing with different safety issues and giving out little freebies for kids. They had a bouncy castle, free game room for kids, a little water park, free BBQ from Phil's BBQ (a local BBQ chain), free ice cream, free drinks from Coca-Cola, a fire truck where firemen show the kids all the equipment on their truck. He got a nice reusable nylon bag, a baseball hat, crayons and a coloring book, swimming & boating safety book, free sun screen, and a pair of swimming googles.
It was good summer time fun and it was nice to meet some of the other parents in our neighborhood.
