Pool news Fort Carson swimming coach Ann Bagshaw goes over instructions to her beginner, beginner class members Monday night at the post indoor swimming pool. This age group is learning their first four swimming steps and will hopefully progress to the beginners class and become a member of the post swimming team. The post indoor pool staff will be offering a lifeguard training class in the month of May. Classes will begin Thursday at 6 p.m. at the indoor pool. The pool staff is not providing Red Cross handbooks or packet masks but they can be picked up at the Red Cross office at 1040 South 8th Street in Colorado Springs. The pre-course will consist of a nonstop 500-yard swim that involves the 200-yard free stroke, 100-yard breast stroke and 200-yards of either free or breast stroke. Also involved in the pre-course is a 20-yard swim (free or breast stroke), surface dive to depth of seven to 10 feet, retrieving a 10-pound brick from the bottom of the pool and returning to the surface and swimming back to the starting point with the brick. For more information on the lifeguard course contact Stephanie Kowaluk at 526 3107. Photo by Walt Johnson
