We are asking parents and friends of SWT to sign our petition to keep us swimming at the Chatham County Aquatics Center until the building is finished over our new pool at Jenkins Athletic Club. As some of you know our contract with the CCAC is up July 31, 2019. We have requested a one year contract extension to allow time for our new pool to be ready. Without this extension, Swim with Theresa will have to close down.

We appreciate and value each and every one of you and hope that you will join our cause to Keep SWT Swimming! Thanks to all of our friends and clients over the years that have supported our quest to teach children and adults of all ages and abilities to swim and be safe in the water.

Please let Theresa keep teaching swimming lessons at the AC. She is a great teacher. Patience and works well with children with learning disabilities.

I've struggled for quite a while to get into the classes offered by the aquatic center. There aren't enough instructors nor available time slots. SWT has been able to fill an important need here and should be allowed to continue.

Mrs. Theresa is a gift to our community and she has taught 100’s if children to swim and taught them how to be safe around the water. There is no greater gift than the safety of our children. I can’t believe they are trying to take away such a important gift!!! We adore her and appreciate her love for our children!!!

Our daughter went through many teachers without success before we met Theresa. Now, with Theresa, she's making great strides and is so proud of herself, as is our son. It will be a great shame is Chatham county Aquatic center forces then to give up their phenomenal teacher. Let them "keep swimming!"

Swim with Theresa has helped my daughter to be much safer around water, which gives me more peace of mind as the mother of a special needs child. Please extend the contract!

Swim With Teresa is essential to this community. As Savannah is a coastal city, the service that Swim with Teresa provides to both adults and children is absolutely necessary to promote water safety. I have seen how her clients have become family, and it would be heartbreaking to not allow her and her team to continue.
