and County Pool Schedule and phone numbers! Mahalo to Masters Swimmer: Roger Komori for compiling the information!!!
 In 1937, a schoolteacher on the island of Maui
challenged a group of poverty-stricken sugar plantation kids
to swim upstream against the current of their circumstance. The
goal? To become Olympians. They were the Three-Year Swim Club. This is their story!

This
is a great article
about swimming in the Adver
tiser. Skippa Diaz. "It's
a lifelong activity, and it relaxes the body and mind,"
Diaz said. Diaz also said the training and values he learned
as a youth swimmer helped him greatly in football. "It gives
you big-time strength," Diaz said. "It's very demanding,
with practices in the morning and afternoon - a double-whammy.
But it gave me that work ethic, the belief that if you want to
be good in anything, you gotta put in the time."

- The
Story of the butterfly
- A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.

- He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it
struggled to squeeze its body through the tiny hole.
- Then it stopped, as if it couldn't go further.....
