Swimming Tips

It's that time of year when we all look to make New Year's resolutions, but instead of something for the New Year, we prefer a plan for the year!

Now is the time to check if your prescription goggles have survived the winter at the bottom of your swim bag, or if you can still see clearly through the lenses. With summer on its way, you may want to think about changing from clear to tinted or even mirrored lenses.
