How it works:
- Swim at lap pools 2 and 5 anytime during the year.
- Log your progress with the pool attendant after each session to track your miles.
This exciting challenge is open to all residents, so dive in, stay motivated, and make every lap count. Are you ready to join the fun? Challenge ends December 31, 2025!
