Swimming helps keep soccer player in shape during off season

To the Editor,

I am writing this letter today to ask the community of Tecumseh to vote YES on Feb. 28 to save our pool. I am on a girls soccer team and I joined the Tecumseh Tigersharks to stay in shape for my off season.

I feel it is important for people of all ages to use the Tecumseh Community Pool to stay in shape.

I am happy that I have met new friends and that I don’t have to leave Tecumseh to be part of a team. Tecumseh Community Pool is also where I learned how to swim. I started swimming lessons there when I was five years old. I feel it is important for all children to learn how to swim, because not only is it good exercise, but it could save their life someday.

Please vote YES on February 28!
