Welcome from the coaches:
Welcome to the
2008 swim season! Arbor Heights has a long tradition of fast
swimming, teamwork, good sportsmanship, and most of all… Fun!
This year Kyle Homad and Zac Hixson will be co-head coaches and
we are both ready to take this season head-on, win swim meets,
get everyone to swim faster, and, once again, have fun.
We encourage anyone ages 5 to 18 to try swimming
at the Arb. Regardless of skill level, we can teach you to swim
or if you already are a swimmer, we can help you improve. If you
are scared about coming out to swim, Zac can tell you he was one
of the worst swimmers and even more scared. He was a VERY bad
swimmer when he started out (his parents will tell you he was so
cute, but trust us he was bad!), but the fun of the Arb kept him
swimming all the way to college. Come out and try a few
practices and then make your decision if you want to swim; we
promise you will have fun.
Good luck with the end of the school year and I
hope to see you all very soon in the water!
Co-Coaches Zac Hixson and Kyle Homad
