The Community Foundation of Teton Valley used to field a lot of questions from executive directors and board members of local nonprofits—”Where can I hold a meeting?”
Teton Valley Aquatics is keeping its head above water in a busy summer.
Holding free swim lessons in the Driggs City Park, TVA had to get inventive when designing the curriculum for this summer.
âWe decided in January that Teton Valley Aquatics was gonna try and do this portable pool program, which weâve seen a bunch of places,â said Stacy Stamm, TVA Executive Director.
The portable pool program has done a good job filling a need for a place to hold lessons, in an area without any.
âNo one is running swim lessons, Targhee is not running swim lessons, Teton Springs isnât running swim lessons, there are no swim lessons in the valley,â said Stamm. âWe felt like it was really important to offer that from our standpoint. What weâre looking for is just to get more kids in the water, people more active in aquatics.â
