The goal is simple, help give more kids the opportunity to have a positive and safe experience in the water this summer by getting as many goggles and masks as possible into the hands of kids who could really use them.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you have an extra pair of goggles or a mask at home that you\u2019re not using, or if you\u2019re open to picking up a new one, please bring it by the Community Center anytime this month.
