It's time once again for Mason County young-
sters to get into the swim.
• The six-week annuai swimming instruction program
of the Shelton Recreation Department gets underway June
19 and local kids can sign up now at the city hall or at Pool
Nuotare on Highway 101 North across from Sanderson
Field.
The fee schedule for the summer recreation program
was set this week in two categories, as follows:
1. Registration fee of $5 plus 20 cents per
day to swim, payable at $1 weekly; registration
fee of $1 for second child in family plus 20 cents
per day to swim.
2. Registration fee of $10 for full six weeks
of swimming; registration fee of $5 for full six
weeks for second child.
Youngsters who cannot afford the program may apply
at the Mason County Multi-Service Center at Second and
Grove, Shelton, where they will be given free swimming
tickets, according to Recreation Chairman Arnold Fox.
The swimming program will run five days a week
from June 19 to July 28 at Pool Nuotare with classes every
hour from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Children, when they sign up for the summer
recreation program, will be given a consent and
release form which must be signed by their par-
ents. On the reverse side of the form is a survey
questionnaire which will be used to find out what
activities local youngsters would prefer in the
summer recreation program.
The recreation department is hopeful that it can obtain
funds from the University of Washington to pay for two
student supervisors for the recreation program at Kneeland
and Callanan parks. Four local youths have applied for
the jobs, according to Fox, and if arrangements can be
worked out, the university will pay ninety per cent of their
salaries and the city the remaining ten per cent.
