Philly Swim Club Denies Racism: Also, black Olympic swimmer Cullen Jones speaks out about incident

*A suburban Philadelphia swim club accused of kicking out a group of African American and Hispanic children visiting from the city is denying that their actions were racist. The Valley Club in Huntingdon Valley says it turned away the minority kids from the Creative Steps day camp because the facility was overcrowded. The club also claims it returned funds to more than one camp. Creative Steps director Alethea Wright says the camp paid for weekly swim time at the gated club, which is in a village that straddles two townships with overwhelmingly white populations. But she says on June 29 some of the children said they heard people asking what "black kids" were doing there.

Groids will always find a reason to moan, they dont own swimming pools, in Africa they swim in rivers, why don't those little chimps go somewhere in the schuylkill river? why should they bother us when we are trying to avoid monkeys bringing dirt in our pools in the first place? can't we get our peaec also?

[HAHA]

Nobody wants to see pooh in a pool.

Blacks are afraid of water. They only want in the pool because they see white people in there and they want to tear down everything white people have. ever seen the greasy little apes ina pool? They go under the water with their mouthsopen and come up spitting. Then they blow their big noses into the water. This action is repeated the whole time they are in.

Good Samaritans have leapt at the chance to find Wright's kids a new pool.

Support pours in for campers kicked out of suburban pool

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/homepage/50...

In Indianapolis, Olympic swimmer and 2008 Gold Medalist Cullen Jones broke training for the U.S. Nationals freestyle finals to send love to Wright's campers. As one of the country's few black swimmers, he was disturbed by Wright's allegation of discrimination.
...
In Los Angeles, filmmaker Kimberly Browning called on members of a national film-making community, "HollywoodShorts," to devise ways to help Wright beef up the arts component of her summer camp.

"We have filmmakers in Philly who will help her campers learn to make movies"
...
North Jersey Web designer Winston Jordan tried to contact Wright to offer support but discovered her camp has no Web site. He wants to build her one.
...
Locally, PR maven Sarah Doheny, owner of Your Unfinished Business, snagged commitments from at least five of the chefs she reps to teach cooking to Wright's campers.

No, if any club is worried about certain people destroying their credibility then they should had started the club in the comfort of their own home.

Stop being so hateful, life is way too short.
