CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE SUMMER 2012 Seafair celebration 5 Seattle's annual summer celebration returns, and the WAC is in line for great seats to the Seafair Torchlight Parade. This year's theme: Carnival of Summer. WAC members can join the priority waitlist for the best seats in the house— the VIP Grandstands—and enjoy the fun in the television zone. The Seafair schedule plays out from June through August. The Torchlight Parade takes place Saturday, July 28, preceded by the Torchlight Spectacular at Seattle Center and the Torchlight Run. And remember, when they're in Seattle, the Blue Angels call the Inn at the WAC home. Olympic Insight 6 A few years ago, WAC Aquatics Supervisor Jennifer Mesler attended a swimming clinic by three-time Olympic gold medalist Megan Jendrick, née Quann, in Tukwila. "It was totally inspiring," Jennifer says with her trademark enthusiasm. "I absolutely devoured every word she said. And I wanted to bring that experience to the WAC." She'll do exactly that with a June 16 swim clinic featuring three-time Olympic medalist Margaret Hoelzer (above). A powerful backstroker, Hoelzer took home one bronze and two silver medals in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
