At the Walter Schroeder Aquatic Center, Coach Donald B. Jackson is a vital link for a growing the Masters community. He coaches and mentors new Masters coaches and swimmers through an 8-week novice program that has proven to be an important step to transitioning beginners into successful, confident swimmers and USMS members. The increase in USMS registrants at the Schroeder pool is in part due to his positive and cooperative attitude and applied coaching skills that have adults thriving in an encouraging and challenging environment.
