Wrestling is another activity that is currently down 10 participants, but registration is still open, and they expect a few more to come out. Swimming, with all the problems with the PH balance in the water over the past year and shortening the lessons last year, has likely caused a decrease in this year’s numbers so far. As of Tuesday, November 28, Swimming has dropped from 41 participants last year to 19 this year. Registration for swimming is still open.
