Tim and Kathy from the Larkspur Community Center in Bend, Oregon were chosen for their Kindness Campaign for their welcoming attitude towards new students in the current channel classes. They have shown such dedication that they are willing to give up their spots in the class if it's full.

When asked about their dedication, Kathy explained that it all started 2.5 years ago when they were encouraged by an online wellness instructor to join. Despite the 45-minute drive, they felt in love with the welcoming and clean environment at Larkspur, especially the pool and dressing rooms.

The couple keeps coming back for the pool, music, their friends, and the knowledgeable instructors at Larkspur. They view their time at the center as a pool party three times a week, where they also participate in other activities such as weight training and chair yoga. Tim even went through lifeguard training to give back to the community by coming two more days a week.

Larkspur Community Center is thankful for Tim and Kathy's warm and kind presence, and they encourage others to learn more about their Kindness Campaign on their website.
