This summer in Yuma, kids at the local Boys & Girls Club are diving into more than just swimming lessons — they’re gaining life skills, healthy habits, and a shot of inspiration from the Michael Phelps Foundation. Partnering with the Yuma Heat swim team, the program offers eight swim sessions and eight classroom lessons focused on wellness, goal-setting, and water safety. With the support of Olympic champion Michael Phelps, children not only learn to swim but also receive their own gold medal upon completion — turning the pool into a place of fun, confidence, and lifelong impact.
