Before he coached the St. Johns Redwings swim and dive team for nearly 20 years, Coach Kim Brewbaker spent 10 years as the Head Coach of the St. Johns Sea Lions. The Sea Lions were crowned Michigan Team Swim League State Champions in his final season with the team, 2001.
Earlier this year he shared these photos with us and we are proud to be able to have a platform to highlight and preserve the digitized images. Photos include Coach Brewbaker’s notes, please excuse any misspellings. Feel free to tag yourself or friends in the google photos album.
The group of swimmers and coaches pictured includes current Sea Lions coaches, current Redwing coaches, High School State Champions, Redwing Hall of Fame members and local Fallen Heroes. We know there are several teachers, administrators and doctors in this group as well. Swimmers we’d love to hear what your doing now in the comments section below. We will post more of these photos on Instagram, so make sure to follow us there. Go Redwings! Go Sea Lions!
