FHS Swim Coach Comments on City Aquatic Center Replastering Project

Courtesy Cindy Blatt, FHS Swim Coach

Thank you to the FUSD Trustees, Administration and especially AD Kim Tafoya for all the hard work in getting an agreement that gives FHS aquatics full access to the Fillmore Aquatic Center. With no year-round youth swim team or water polo teams to feed the high school programs, it is important that our FHS student athletes are going to be able to have summer and pre-season access to the pool for conditioning and practice.

We compete against schools who have many year round swimmers. This agreement will help our student athletes be more successful and competitive.

We coaches will have more time to spend with beginning swimmers and even non-swimmers.

Lastly, our student athletes are members of the Fillmore community and this is their pool too.

I'm looking forward to a successful and fun FHS swim team season.
