Red Cross Program Helps Tulsa Kids Learn To Swim

Some Tulsa kids are spending their summer learning how to swim, and the lessons don't cost their parents a dime.

The children are part of a Red Cross scholarship swim program, which provides free lessons for those who may not be able to afford to pay for them.

Coach Greg Patrick, the coordinator of the program, has been helping kids to learn to swim and stay safe around the water for more than a decade.

As photojournalist Michael Blair shows in the video above, the program is a labor of love for one of Oklahoma's Own.
