But, even though I think I'm going to be able to get through this summer without a pool pass, I could not get through the summer without swim lessons for the boys. Since the June session was so cold last year I opted for the July session...which clearly has been so much warmer...
Jonathan graduated last year to Level II but poor Drew had to be put back into Level I. Both boys are doing well in their respective classes, although I'm a little concerned Drew won't be promoted again. He'll be 16 before he learns how to swim...
THINK POSITIVE THINK POSITIVE THINK POSITIVE
Drew's intimidation could come from the fact that he has nearly drowned multiple times. Poor kid! I say that lightly but I hope you all know how truly thankful I am that he has been saved each time. Don't even want to think about that anymore.
Swimming Lessons!
Level I: Drew
The lessons were the same price as last year but three classes shorter. Does that make sense to anyone? Hmm. Let's do some math:
Actually, I had to pay five more dollars this year because we weren't members. Let's just throw that one into the equation as well.
$25 for six lessons this year ($20 for six lessons if I would have bought a membership) and $20 for nine lessons last year (that includes our member discount.)
So, roughly, that figures out to $4.17 per lesson this year ($3.33 with a membership) and $2.22 per lesson last year. Even if I would not have bought a membership last year, I still only would have paid $2.77 per lesson.
Hmm...
NON MEMBER: 4.17 this year as opposed to 2.77 last year. Percent of increase: almost 51!!!
MEMBER: 3.33 this year as opposed to 2.22 last year. Percent of increase: almost 50!!!
MY PERCENT OF INCREASE: 2.22 last year...4.17 this year: amost 88%
REALLY? Did I do this right? Come on, who's the math teacher...

Just a quick update...
Swim lessons are now over and, unfortunately, neither Jonathan nor Drew passed their respective classes. Drew improved immensely from last season but was still at only 50%. Jonathan had more than 50% of the requirements mastered yet lacked enough to promote him to Level III.
AUGH!!!
Maybe we'll have to sign up for the August session as well.
