Hutchings Pool Party!

Now through the end of February, the Aquatic Center is having a fundraiser for each elementary school's PTO. For each swimmer, we will earn $1 and the PTO with the most swimmer visitors at the end of the month will earn $500. Make sure you mention you are from Hutchings each time you visit, swim lessons included!
