Sports and

competition can thrive on any level. In fact, often, the

higher levels of athleticism and drive exist on a local

level, where dreams start out small and the dedication is

to the pure ideals of the sport, the athlete and his or

her surroundings.

That seems

to be the case for the Woodcreek Waves swim team from

Fayetteville. They are a neighborhood swim team looking

for other local neighborhood teams to compete with.

They will

have their second competitive meet of the season at home

July 15 at 6 p.m. against the Lakemont Lightning swim

team.

The Waves

swim in the Woodcreek neighborhood pool on Woodcreek

Drive in Fayetteville. It is an interesting idea because

many subdivisions in both Peachtree City and Fayetteville

have community pools and can be used for a much lower

cost than what some of the more premier teams that exist

in the area pay.

The Waves

were formed by Lynn Tacoronti, who would like to help

other neighborhoods form teams for a competitive swim

league. She can be reached at 678-817-1065.
