The Orthotic and Prosthetic Activities Foundation (OPAF) held a First Swim Clinic recently at the YMCA of Greater Dayton, Springboro, Ohio. The clinic was organized by junior high student Riley Feighner, whose father is an employee of Endolite, Miamisburg, Ohio. The clinic was sponsored locally by Hanger Clinic, Dayton; Bulldog Tools, Lewisburg, Ohio; Endolite; and Optimus Prosthetics, Dayton and Columbus, Ohio. Fifteen challenged swimmers participated in the clinic, which was led by OPAF instructor Mabio Costa and assisted by members of the YMCA swim community.
