What do summer swim meets and civic engagement have in common? In Greenville County, the answer is SAIL.

In this episode, we dive into the history and impact of SAIL with Chris Abdella, current SAIL president, and Peter Pistolis, past president and former SAIL swimmer. Discover how this beloved summer tradition fosters a sense of belonging, teaches valuable life skills, and strengthens the civic fabric of Greenville County. Tune in to learn how a neighborhood swim league can create ripples of positive change that extend far beyond the pool.
