The designation of Captain Swim is a tremendous honor, and the holder of said title has important responsibilities. Captain Swim is not an elected official, and it is only a temporary appointment. Any current member of team SICK is eligible for the position. There is, however, a certain requirement that must be met before designation is allowed. A person must get flipped over in moving water on a team SICK outing. They then must choke their roll, or fail to attempt to roll their watercraft. They then must punch out of said watercraft and immediately assume the responsibilites of Captain Swim. The first responsibility is to scream "HELP" as a little girl would scream for her mother.  This is generally met with a chorus from the other, non-swimming, team members.  It is their job to yell "SWIMMER!" loud enough so that paddlers playing nearby holes or waiting in nearby eddies, that are not a part of team SICK, can join in the inauguration festivities. Join team SICK today and maybe you can be Captain Swim!

The new Captain Swim is Good ol Sugar Paul. He swam several times on our spring break trip, much to our delight. So Sugar Paul is not only Captain Swim but Colonel Hole.
