With the news that the Glenwood Aquatic Center will not be able to open this year, SWITA would like to provide an opportunity for Glenwood kids to get to a pool. They are setting up excursion trips to the Malvern Pool every Tuesday and Thursday through the summer. These trips will leave from the Glenwood Middle School at 1:00 p.m. and return at 4:00 p.m. Riders must be registered as SWITA Summer Fun Bus riders which can be done on the website SWITA.com . Cost will be $5 round-trip or no cost for riders that hold a SWITA Summer Fun Bus Unlimited Pass which is $40 for the summer. This will be transportation only and not include pool entry cost. SWITA appreciates riders giving them a day’s notice of their intention to ride for planning purposes. SWITA will only continue to offer this service if there is ridership.

Reminder that 5th Grade Graduation is being live streamed now. https://www.youtube.com/live/ZMkRu7i8swI?si=BV2DA1pvHfHzWaCT
