    Updated Mar 7, 2018

    FALLBROOK – Swimming has been part of the human experience for as long as man has been expressing himself. Neolithic pictographs or cave paintings, bas-reliefs, wall drawings and mosaics depicting swimmers have been discovered from such diverse places as the Gobi Desert, Egyptian tombs, Babylonia, Mesoamerica, Assyria and ancient Pompeii.
