Rocket Camp and Great America!

A huge Thank You goes out to all the Rocket swimmers who helped this summer at the Rocket Swim Camp in June!! We had over 60 young campers from our community attend camp and our NHS swimmers did an excellent job of inspiring and helping them throughout the week! Their involvement with the campers helped make it a fun and memorable experience for all! 

Here's our group photo from the summer trip to Great America! It was perfect weather to enjoy the rides, activities of the park and bond with teammates!
