Editor’s Note Oh, Portland. You’re such a show-off in May! From the rows of cherry blossoms at Tom McCall Waterfront Park to the first spring bouquets at the first farmer’s markets of the season, there are glimpses of our mild yet spectacular spring season everywhere you look! This issue marks the final part of our 2019 Summer Camp Guide. We loved seeing so many of you at last month’s Camp Expo and are already making plans for the 2020 Expo (April 4th! Save the date!). If you missed the March and April issues, don’t despair. Head on over to our website and take a look at the complete 2019 Summer Camp Guide online. But for now, get back out there and smell the flowers. Summer will be here before you know it! Cheers,
Mary

Tualatin Hills Parks and Recreation
Get Ready for Summer with Swim Lessons! Is your child ready for swim lessons? Brooklyn Walker, Head Lifeguard and Head Swim Instructor at Villa Sport in Beaverton says swimming success depends a lot on the child and whether they want to learn. But there are benefits to starting early. “It takes time to overcome fears and get comfortable in the water,” Walker says. “Starting early gives kids that head start.” Walker points out that it’s important to find lessons they love because it will make learning fun. Being pushed out of their comfort zone is hard for kids, but when they have the support of a great teacher, and parents, it helps a lot. “Swimming is a life skill!” Walker says. “Unlike soccer or baseball you can do it for your entire life. It’s a full body workout that can literally save your life!” Villasport
