Janes “Splashes” Her Way to a Swimming Sensation

swimming

In her first time in the pool, Grace Janes made a splash that won’t soon be forgotten. Janes, 8 months, began her swim with the “floaty-event”. Fearlessly kicking and splashing inside her flower flotation device, she giggled and gurgled to the finish. Leaving the floaty behind for future events, Janes then cruised the pool in the arms of her mom, dad, uncle and friends. Not a cry escaped her lips as she played away in the water for nearly 45 minutes of fun.

Janes was joined in the pool by family friends, Abby Rachut, daughter of Steve and Beth Rachut, of Osage, Iowa, and Kade and Camden Wilson, son and daughter of Derek and Cherri Wilson, of Ankeny, Iowa. Also joining her for this special event were her uncle, Greg Janes, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and new friend Kim Struyk of Virginia.

Janes’s future athletic plans include swimming lessons in Ames, Iowa during the month of February.
