All-star swim program

The All-star swim program started today (for coaches).  It's a swim program intended for the disabled population in San Bernardino, but really anyone could've joined.  It's mostly kids with MS, cerebral palsy, autism and things like that.  I regretted signing up up until this morning thinking, "What the hell did I just get myself into?  I can't teach people how to swim."  Luckily, the head coaches said that was okay and they would pair me with children who have no experience at all in the water, so really I'd be teaching him to how blow bubbles, float, dunk their head, hold their breath and things like that.

I'm pretty excited.  For a number of reasons really.  Of course, I already know it's going to be great just be a part of it.  I do miss volunteering and KIWIN'S.  I'm looking forward to the interaction and whatnots.  The program is every Saturday of May, not including Memorial Day weekend, and the first Saturday in June.  I know it's going to rain again but it usually gets back to being hot.  It'll be nice to be in a pool when it's gross outside.  And at the end of the program I guess they throw a coaches party which includes a hike to Forest Falls and a party back at my Moffett's GF's house (!!!).

That's pretty much it.  That, and I'm probably going to be black by graduation...... omg, I'm going to have the sickest tan line for graduation.  I should've put more thought into my swimsuit.

That's obviously just a tiny waterfall, but apparently the largest waterfall in So Cal is at Forest Falls.  According to that website anyways.
