So… here is a brief summary. During this school year 2010-11, Connor Cares/Edward Knudsen Jr. fund awarded 164 scholarships to students who could not afford our reduced fee of $14.00. Many of these children would not have attended the Drownproofing Program because the families were afraid to ask or just did not know to ask for financial help. Our attendance usually averages about 95% participation of actual 5th grade students attending. This year, 96% of actual fifth grade students attended! We were also able to purchase 18 very nice Speedos for the girls thanks to Metro Swim wear who gave us a great deal and 12 boy’s/men’s bath suits. Some we never got back from students who borrowed them… some we have been able to use for others multiple times who did not own a bathing suit. All of this has been made possible because of you and your family’s generosity.
