Description
I am writing because I was devastated by the news of Coach Louis Barnes' reassignment to the Mason Pool. For 20 years, Coach Barnes has created a pool community that is well-organized, safe, and fun. The Flaherty Dolphins Swim Team is the heart of this pool. This change will significantly affect more than 100 youth swimmers and their families, the Lap Swimmers, and the entire Flaherty Community. His incredible dedication and commitment to the Dolphins and the Flaherty Pool are irreplaceable. Removing him from Flaherty will cause families to leave, disrupt the swimmers’ and team’s momentum, and eliminate one of the few accessible competitive swim options available to Boston families. I ask that BCYF allow Coach Louis to remain as the Flaherty Pool Manager and with the Flaherty Dolphins, preserving stability, opportunity, and growth for all the swimmers who depend on him and in the community he has helped create over the past 20 years. | Case (SR) Type: [Boston Center for Youth and Families] Referred To: [BOSTON CENTERS FOR YOUTH & FAMILIES]
