Chris,Toby and Miles Muratore learned to swim this summer. They were partially inspired by their parents' promise to present them with the largest and most delicious ice cream sundae offered by their local ice cream shop upon swimming the length of the pool under their own power. It was a pleasant challenge for them as the summer was particularly hot, which made the city pool even more appealing. Toby invented a new stroke called "the crazy man" which makes the feat of swimming across the pool even greater, as he would go forward only a little more than he would go back, resulting in his swimming the equivalent of 1.85 times the length of the pool each time. They are now hooked on frequent trips to the pool which we have found to be a great way to spend the summer.
