The pools are heated to 90 degrees, and the curriculum was created by highly trained professional instructors who are passionate about the safety of children near and in the water. Even though Boston is a city that has easy access to water, there is a lack of swim schools for children in the area, said Cohen.You can listen to the full interview <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/audio/2021-06-25/baystate-business-summer-on-the-cape-radio?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=bloomberg-radio-big-blue-swim-school-franchise-partner-gary-cohen-discusses-a-need-for-swim-lessons-in-the-wake-of-local-drownings-2716359" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.
