Storm water Is everyone’s Doo DeeCommon pollutants found in storm water include oil, fertilizers, trash, soap and pet waste. That’s right, pet waste. Without thumbs, Fido has a hard time picking up after himself, so he needs your help. After a good rain, the runoff from your lawn carries the bacteria into the storm drains which go directly into our creeks, streams, and lakes. The bacterium in the pet waste degrades the quality of surface water and damages wildlife habitats. It can make our water-ways unsafe for wading, swimming, boating and fishing. Storm water pollution can be controlled if everyone plays a part and prevents pet waste contamination from entering the storm drain inlets in the streets.

Help Fido and take the Pet Pledge by visiting www.burlesontx.com/petpledge.com

OPERATION REMEMBER

MAGIC IN BURLESON WITH BRETT ROBERTS

PURCHASE A BRICK FOR A VETERAN

VETS, WE NEED YOUR PHOTOS!

The goal of Operation Remember is to archive the personal histories of Burleson’s veterans and present their stories in a way that encourages every generation to learn more about our veterans’ contributions to our country and our community. Operation Remember includes:

Bricks for Veterans: Veterans Memorial Plaza is located at 298 East Renfro Street in Old Town Burleson and can accommodate 3,024 veteran bricks. An interactive kiosk allows visitors access to information about the service of the military veterans whose names are memorialized on the bricks at the park.

Bricks are available online at www.burlesonlibrary.com or you can purchase one at the Burleson Public Library or City Hall. Bricks are $15 each and include the veteran's name, branch of service, and any conflict(s) in which he or she may have been involved.

WATCH AN INTERVIEW WITH A VETERAN

All of our interviews are available on the Burleson Operation Remember YouTube channel. We currently have interviews with 139 veterans with a Burleson connection, including personal histories from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, the Iraq War, and the War in Afghanistan.

The kiosk at Veterans Memorial Plaza has a new look. This interactive software displays the location of each brick, and it also includes photos, biographical information and even excerpts from personal interviews. If you have photos for a veteran, please contact us! Call 817-426-9206 or email your photos to [email protected]. Coming to the Veterans Day Celebration? Visit the Operation Remember table and we’ll scan them right there.

Burleson Veterans History Project: In 2003, local military veterans and members of the Burleson Heritage Foundation started compiling an oral history by interviewing veterans and recording those conversations to videotape. All of these interviews are now available online at the Burleson Operation Remember YouTube Channel.

Veterans Day Celebration: The City of Burleson honors military service for Veterans Day at Veterans Memorial Plaza. This year’s celebration will be at 2 p.m. on Saturday, November 7.

SWIM LESSON GENERAL INFORMATION

PARENT & ME (children 6 months to 3 years with parent)

This class is an interactive parent and child learning environment wherein caregivers are taught progressive methods and games to acclimate and teach their little swimmer.

PRE-SCHOOL 2 (Advanced; children ages 4 to 5 years)

Participants who have mastered the objectives for Pre-School 1 are ready for Pre-School 2. They will continue working on propulsive swimming movements, water safety and basic strokes using hands on-methods.

PRE-SCHOOL 1 (children ages 4 to 5 years)

Participants will become acclimated to the water with hands-on methods. They will be introduced to independent propulsive swimming movements, water safety, and practice basic strokes in a fun and safe environment.

LEVEL 1 (Introduction to Water Skills, Ages 6 and Up)

Participants will be taught beginning skills such as fully submerging head in water and retrieving objects, front and back floats, moving comfortably through the water on the front and back, and entering and exiting the water independently.

LEVEL 4 (Stroke Improvement)

Participants improve their technique and increase their endurance by swimming front crawl and back crawl for distances of 25 yards and greater continuously. The breaststroke and butterfly are introduced as well as the basics of turning at a wall.

LEVEL 5 (Stroke Refinement)

Participants will coordinate and refine their strokes as well as increase their endurance by swimming distances of 50 yards and greater. Flip turns, both on the front and back, are introduced as well as various skill drills.

LEVEL 2 (Fundamental Aquatic Skills)

Participants begin to explore the water without support. They will learn to float and recover to a vertical position, explore simultaneous arm and leg actions on the front and back without support, and begin basic treading motions.

LEVEL 3 (Stroke Development)

Participants progress to complete independent swimming. They will learn elementary backstroke, rules for headfirst entries and techniques for treading water. Participants will learn rotary breathing to coordinate their front crawl as well as coordinating the back crawl and will work towards swimming 25 yards continuously.

Participants over 14 years of age are taught techniques for water acclimation and stroke development.

ADULT SWIM CLASSES

Make-up Lesson Policy: The only time that makeup lessons are offered is in the event of inclement weather or an unforeseen closure of the pool. If your child misses a lesson due to illness, schedule conflict, special event, tardiness or any other personal reason, there will be no make-up lessons, sitting in on another class or a partial refund given. No exceptions.

Minimum Registration Requirement Notice: Classes must have a minimum of four children enrolled by the Wednesday prior to the start date, if not the class will be cancelled or consolidated with another, which may start at a different time.

Maximum Registration Notice: Classes are capped at a maximum capacity of 6 students per class. This is to ensure that each swimmer receives ample amount of hands on time with the instructor and to ensure the safety of the participants.

Progressing Through the Levels:In order to progress from one level to the next, the child must have passed the previous level. For new children, we offer a free evaluation for level placement. Request the evaluation at the front desk, and then we will schedule an evaluation time.
