Swimmers compete, prepare for regionals
Hustle! The Port Aransas Swim Team has been busy lately. On Saturday, July 9, the team competed against some other Coastal Bend swim teams in a meet at West Guth Park in Corpus Christi. Then, on the following Monday, the team held a swim-a-thon that raised hundreds of dollars for team. (The exact total wasn’t available at deadline.)
