Mermaid Spotlight: Lisa Paulson
Posted by coachlisa on March 29, 2008
Every so often we like to spotlight a mermaid that demonstrates the qualities that Women First Swimming likes to promote: positive attitude, dedication, hard work and team spirit.
Our current Mermaid Spotlight profile is Lisa Paulson, who also won the rookie attendance award for the Winter session. The coaches agreed that Lisa showed a great attitude throughout the winter program, which is especially impressive considering her fears of joining the group and being too “beginner”.
Coach Lisa went out on a limb to get veteran mermaid Wendy Besterman to share her story about being in the beginner lanes at Women First Swimming, and convinced Lisa Paulson to put both arms forward in the pool. The fact that Lisa didn’t miss a sessional all winter and has since recruited other friends to the spring program is testimony enough that she’s hooked on swimming with her fellow mermaids.
