Toa o le Tai – Kroc Center of Camden 2015
Toa o le Tai – Kroc Center of Camden from Bruckner Chase.
Toa o le Tai means Hero of the Sea or Ocean warriors in the Samoan language. The learn-to-swim and learn-about-the-ocean program in American Samoa has now expanded to Camden, New Jersey by Bruckner Chase and Dr. Michelle Evans-Chase.
What is really cool is that Chase designed their paddle boards that are inflatable and can be easily deflated and taken onboard an airplane and in a car or train for use in a separate location. So the entire Pool Open Water Swimming system is transportable in a travel bag.
