Take Action To Save Community Pools In Pennsylvania (It Is Just A Simple Survey)

Pennsylvania’s Department of Conservation and Natural Resources is developing its Outdoor Recreation Plan, which will help to guide future recreation investments, policies and facilities across the state.  They are currently conducting a survey to determine what is needed and where resources should be directed. 

It is a short survey of 13 questions but one of the questions asks the survey taker to rate the level of priority your local community should place on investing in certain facilities over the next five years.  First facility mentioned is ‘swimming pools/water play parks’ (see picture at bottom of blog).  Pools can be expensive to maintain and at times, public and local funding is needed to rehabilitate the structures.  These pools have many benefits; such as adding to our community’s recreational value and attracting people to our communities, become social outlets and bring families together in the community, they can be source of employment for area teens to lifeguard, teach swimming lessons, water safety, and other fitness and therapeutic activities for children, adults, and seniors.

If public swimming pools are important to you and your family, show your support by filling out the short survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/paoutdoorrec.

Lock Haven YMCA Pool Used For More Than Swim Lessons

Awards Banquet Caps Off Successful YMCA Swim Season

The Lock Haven YMCA swim team celebrated the end of the 2013-2014 season with an Awards Banquet at the Lock Haven Elks Lodge this past Sunday.  While the two seniors (see program below), 32 swimmers that made YMCA Districts (here), and the 8 members that advanced onto States (here) were recognized for their high achievements, head coach Jim Meriner spent much of the afternoon on the swimmers who made contributions to the cohesiveness and camaraderie of the team throughout the whole winter.

Every year, swimmers leave the sport because they age out or spend time concentrating on another sport.  Those empty slots are readily filled by swimmers of all age groups, young and old.  To acknowledge the effort of new swimmers, the ‘Rookie Award’ was given to first year swimmers who competed at most home and away meets.

Jonathan Hughes was one of nine who earned this award.  “He attended our meets and never allowed all the confusion and excitement to get to him,” said Meriner.  “In fact, he was more like a seasoned veteran out there, not an unexperienced first year swimmer.”  In addition to Hughes, the other swimmers that garnered rookie awards were Joseph Caimi, Logan Edmonston, Kylie Garman, Autumn Garman, David Lindsay, Brody Rhine, Chrissy Smith, and Julian Wilt.

Coach Meriner then moved onto the Coach’s Award.  These are given to those swimmers who are the glue that holds teams together, always at practice and practicing correctly, great attitudes and work ethic, and cheer and encourage others.   Loren Glossner was one of the recipients of the award.  “At the second practice (9-12 year olds), the kids are still learning to listen and behave to some extent,” Meriner told the crowd.  “Loren is the exception.  She hears what we say the first time, goes and does it, and never needs to be told twice what to do.”  Nash Berfield, Ethan Dale, and Madison Bair also received the award.

First place finishes and numerous placings helped the YMCA team to a 10-1-2 regular season record but some swimmers were recognized at the banquet for more than just their ability to score points.   Emily Bartlett was just one example of several swimmers that earned the Extra Effort Award.  “Emily is a good swimmer, who does everything she can for our team:  practices hard, listens well, swims any event without complaint, swims well, and scores points,” said Meriner.   “She is more than just a person who can score points; she is a big help to the coaches with her attitude and effort.”  Other swimmers that populated the list for the Extra Effort award were Emily Bartlett, Elise Cygan, Anna Drouin, Madison Myers, Sam Rockey, Leslie Shadle, Maia Crowell, Loren Glossner, Carter Drouin, and Josie Lins.

All Lock Haven YMCA swimmers dropped time at some point throughout the season in at least one event.  Special acknowledgement occurred at the banquet, in the form of the Most Improved Award, for those few, such as Jack Drouin, that moved into a higher level of competition by their hard work.  “From last summer to spring, Jack has made tremendous improvement in every stroke, especially breaststroke,” said Meriner.  “He was able to qualify for the district meet in the freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke, and was very close in the IM.  That illustrated steady improvement across the board, with Jack now competing with swimmers who are looking to be state qualifiers, which is a much higher level of competition that before.”  Swimmers Morgan Brian, Rebekkah Meriner, and David Orndorf were also recipients.

Lock Haven University Offering Stroke Clinics and Lessons

As a swimmer ages, stroke efficiency becomes even more important.  Pick up some tips at Lock Haven's 2-day 'Competitive Swim Clinic' in April to pick up that edge.  Not quite there for stroke work?  They are also offering swim lessons.  Lessons are completed in VERY small instructor to swimmer ratio (1-1 for younger swimmers, never more than 2-1 for advanced swimmers).  For more information, go here.).

Former Mill Hall Swimmer Top Seed At NCAA D-III Championships

During the summer's, the Lugg sisters would visit family in the Mill Hall area.  Being swimmers, they looked for a place to train during their stay and found a home with the Mill Hall Muskrats (now the Lock Haven Loggerheads).  Denison University senior, Natalie Lugg, is seeded 1st in the 200 IM, 5th in the 100 breast, and 5th in the 200 breaststroke in the 2014 NCAA Division III Championships that take place this weekend.  Psych sheets can be found here.

The Old Fashioned Way To Teach Swim Lessons

No doubt that local sport's coverage in the newspapers is heavy on football, basketball, wrestling, and baseball but swimming coverage in the Williamsport Sun-Gazette and especially the Lock Haven Express has really picked up the past year.  It should be noted that every once in a while, Bill Byham-sports columnist for Williamsport's Webb Weekly, also talks about swimming.  He is an old timer that brings back some of his past experiences and recollections of yesteryear.  Below is his latest column with reference to swimming issues (general swimming experience in 2nd and 3rd paragraphs and a shout-out to two swim coaches from his hometown in last paragraph).

Investment in Williamsport Swimming Pools

Some good news on the swimming pool front in Williamsport as the Williamsport Area School Board voted 6-0 to re-install the ceiling, with perimeter lighting, for the high school natatorium (pool).  More on that can be found here (scroll to bottom). 

While improvements are being made on the indoor pool, major work needs to be done on the outdoor Williamsport Memorial Pool.  The Friends of Memorial Pool presented Justin Simpson, city recreation director, with a $1,000 check as part of their commitment to raise $50,000 asked of them by City Council last year at budget time.  More information can be found here.

Two Lock Haven Swims Equals Two YMCA State Qualifiers

Last night's first two Lock Haven swimmers, Emma Butzler and Ethan Dale, swam fast enough and clean enough to automatically advance onto the state meet in two weeks.  Butzler dropped 13 seconds to take first in the 500 freestyle while Dale took 5th in the brutal 400 IM.

Zach and Cody Schwoyer of Jersey Shore placed 7th and 10th respectively in the 500 freestyle (14-and-under and 15-and-over respectively) and wait to see if they can qualify on times after results from East and West Districts.

Jersey Shore's Kendra White dropped 11 seconds in her 14-and-under 400 IM and also waits to see if see can qualify for the state meet on times.

For real time results for today and tomorrow (plus last night's full results) go here.

Senior Swimmers At Jersey Shore High School Say Farewell.

The previous post (here) compared the Jersey Shore High School women's swim team standings from 14th place at the 2013 District IV AA Championship to 8th place this year.  The men moved up 4 spots, from 11th to 7th, in one year.  Part of that was because of the large number of seniors leading the team.  Below is an article that appeared in the January 29th edition of the Lock Haven Express on this leadership and upset win over Central Columbia.
