Lets start at the beginning
Macie is a very strong swimmer. She is fearless in the water and is fully capable of serious swimming
She passed level 1 first time no problems
Level 2 has been a total bummer. The coaches are teenaged snowflakes. Macie has taken level 2 twice this year and has failed both times. First time the coach indicated that she could not complete certain swims that she was able to complete in level 1??? figure that out. The second time the coach was a nice guy but spent more time looking at his notes and speaking french to the one kid in his class than he did with the other students. Macie got like 5 min out 30 minuts swim time. and the coach would barley look at her. There was no stopping and showing, or explaining her mistakes so she could improve. well when we thought it was test day, Macie worked her tail off and went the distance and completed the forms required, but the substitute did not pass her. it was very weird. When the sub was questioned as to why Macie failed again, she said that the other coach completed the test scores which take into account the whole 6 weeks...BLAAA
Well no more swimming lessons in Cold Lake- Come on Lethbridge....
Wade did well in Salamanders and was abel to pass his second round. He is doing well under water retrieving rings and listening to coach.
They both worked very hard to listen and to pass. Regardless of the outcome we are proud of these kids
