Pedal 4 Drowning Prevention

Hey, my name is Derek Quick. I have been a lifeguard for 6 years, working at pools and lifeguarding triathlons. I have been a triathlete and swimmer since a very young age and now compete at an international level.  I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to take swimming lessons when I was growing up and I would love to give children the same opportunities I had. I feel that the Lifesaving Society's Swim to Survive program is an excellent way to make this happen. With John's extensive outdoor expertise and my biking experience I feel that this bike trip will be legendary.
