Swimmers Participate in 2010 Jersey Shore Town Meeting Parade

The Jersey Shore swimmers sweated it out yesterday as they walked through town throwing candy and one-day pool passes to people and kids lining the street.

The evening started with the group meeting at the Wheeland Center. From the get go, kids and adults immediately started to drink water as temperatures reached 97 F.

The group then walked to where the float was located and got their candy and other items to hand out. Again, hydrating continued. Todd Moore, float builder, is standing next to the float in black shirt and white cap.TO READ MORE ABOUT THE PARADE AND VIEW PHOTOS THEN CLICK ON "READ MORE" BELOW.


The float and swimmers departed the staging area and traveled down Allegheny Street.

Kids threw out candy from the float and the older kids passed candy and free one-day pool passes to kids lining the streets.

Even the coaches, head coach Patty Kennelley (white shirt, sunglasses) and assistant coach Steve Sheets (black shirt, sunglasses) got into the spirit as they walked with the team.

The swim team also had a booth at the Town Meeting grounds where they were promoting the sport of swimming. In addition, the group was selling sno-cones and glo-necklaces.
