Life saving lessons


The summer heat makes swimming a much sought after summer activity now that schools are closed for the summer months. If attendance is any indicator, then it appears interest in swimming is at an all-time high in Anderson County and continues to be a popular summer sport for children everywhere. Dozens of children from Clinton and surrounding areas attended an early morning swim lesson on Tuesday inside the Clinton Community Center’s indoor pool.
