TAT Coach-Janet Ready for Spring Camp
Map of ORU – http://www.oru.edu/virtual_tour/
We are in Building C Cooper Aerobics center. The best parking lot is the one closest to the building along 81st street. It’s a good walk to the Aerobics center and up a hill. You will enter at the NW corner of the building. Let the Front Dest know you are here for the TAT camp. On your first visit they will have you fill out a form to use the facility. You may want to give yourself at least 20 minutes to walk, sign up at front desk, get to locker room, change, and meet and greet your fellow campers on your first night.

Most of you might know that this pool hardly ever closes. It is not along an exterior wall and is on the 1st floor of a two story building.

To get the most out of the camp you need to swim at LEAST 2 other times per week. The classes will last about an hour. Beginners starting out will not be swimming for the entire hour.

I will be videoing your swim stroke in the first few weeks. Links to your videos will sent to you with a link to a private U-tube account.

No small cut speedos for the guys and only one piece suits for the girls (ORU rules).

Check your goggles that they are good to go, ear plugs, nose clips (for drill work). You will need a towel and girls usually like to wear a swim cap, showers are available in locker rooms.

Remember to bring your TAT membership card on the first night.

By the 4th night of class please pick up and bring to class a 6′ of longer stretch band or elastic tubing to do out of water exercises

Beginner class by the 4th class or so, needs to have a way to time yourself. You can use the pace clock or a watch you can easily see.

Mastering the mile Campers need to have a way to time your self that is easy to use and see at the first class.
