From February 13-17, 25 members of Appleby’s swim team trained at the Pine Crest Pool and Athletic Facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Students completed 18 hours of rigorous training that included a variety of dry land and water activities. In between workouts the group participated in surf lessons, went on a moonlight stand-up board paddle, and fished off the international pier. Alumni parent and member of Appleby’s Board of Governors, Melinda Harrison, is part of the Pine Crest School’s Athletic Hall of Fame. The group picture is in front of the board with Melinda’s name cast in bronze.
