Swallowflight swam out to a deeper part of the lake away from the other campers. Once out there, he began floating as still as he could.

After a while he saw a shadow drift under him and with flurry of motion he dove down after the shadow...

Swallowflight stretched on the bank of the lake. He loved fishing and swimming. There was a stream and swamp in Grove Clan that he frequented often so when he heard some other campers talk about a swimming race he was immediately down to participate.

After loosing his muscles he perched himself at the edge of the lake, ready for his cue to dive in .

This was going to be fun.

Another day, another round of fishing... Haywing settles on the banks once more, readying his paw to catch something - only for something else to catch his attention instead. He glances up, peering closer to see what all the commotion is about - something to do with Cliff, belly deep in the water...

He sighs. He'll have time later to fish, probably. For now, let's see what all this is about...

The thing about a swimming competition is: it may be true that Haywing is the fastest of all cats on the island back home, but that was all on land. He's nowhere near their best or fastest swimmer - and he's never claimed to be. He's just better on land than in the water, and... well, that's okay. Usually, he has no reason to worry about it.

Today, though, there's a race in the water. Just last night he'd shown off how fast he could be on land; he feels like today, there will be some sort of expectations upon him to do just as well in water. Which isn't really true, but!! ...Oh, well. He'll just have to do his best, swim his fastest...

Art/Blurb 1: the water gently lapped at honeybee's paws as she sat along the shallows of the lake. it was a quiet day for fishing, although she couldn't help but feel glad that things at camp had calmed down a bit.

Art/Blurb 2: this was exciting! honeybee loved the water, and she'd gladly take the opportunity to swim around the lake for a little bit. swimming wasn't anything new to her, all of the cats in valleyclan were taught how to swim as trainees. as valleyclan's territory was full of rivers and streams, it was very important that young cats learned how to keep themselves afloat. she had always enjoyed it, and it was honeybee's favorite part of training. even though she wasn't particularly competitive or anything, a race sounded fun!

Rattle Snake was not the strongest swimmer to say the least, and he was still fairly freaked out by the open water. The most he had seen before the camp was the river the town got it's water from, and that wasn't very deep unless you end into the middle, and he was able to stand on his tiptoes and be fine there (though it wasn't a good idea most days, the current could get very strong). He had gotten a good handle on fishing since camp started, but swimming was a whole different idea.
But when the counselors mentioned a race, he knew he had to at least try. He loved a good competition, even if he didn't even come close to winning. Rattle Snake could at least do his best.

Well, personally Lionbloom couldn't blame Cliff for being apprehensive about the water. He thought to himself that he wasn't a particularly fast swimmer, not gliding through the water seamlessly with his thick fur trailing behind him quite like Shaded Hollow's deputy, Hawthornsnare. Not rotating like an otter nor being able to float among the current as the older tom was capable of. But he wasn't opposed since the sun was bellowing its harsh rays overhead, turning the camp into an oven at midday. Back home, temperatures never reached this level, never getting sticky and unbearable to this degree. Winters, though? Forget about it, they'd receive their share of hailstorms and blizzards, knocking down trees and rattling the walkways with wind, to the point where many a time cats would huddle in insulated shelters tunneled into the ground. Lion supposed the damage from a heatwave wasn't nearly as severe as that.

Right, the task at hand. Hawksbeard was crowing incessantly, shaking the ground underfoot with his annoyance, considering he wasn't a part of the racing. His rooster feet actually propelled him pretty far into the water much like a duck's and he adored bathing in the streams. However, he'd have to sit this one out. "Here buddy, how about you swim over here? You're not making this easy," Lion rolled his eyes at the bird's diva behavior, receiving a huge splash as Hawk barreled into the lake, feathers gliding in the breeze. He plucked one of the feathers from its slow free fall and shoved it in his fluffy pelt, haphazardly sticking out like a spike. A good luck charm. Lionbloom then took his spot in the water's shallows with the other swimmers.

Art/Blurb 1: Hal definitely lost track of time and went too late next time, but he checked the sun in the sky and made sure that this time, he wouldn't be too late to bring back his catch! He gave the air a little fist pump before diving back in to fish. Though last time he didn't bring back anything, practice was practice and practice never hurt!

Art/Blurb 2: Hal was glad the new techniques for fishing he had tried out included swimming as well. As a cat who had grown up in a cold, frozen tundra, he hadn't gotten as much of a chance to swim as many of the other cats present who grew up swimming. Just being able to complete the full round of swimming was good enough; he looked forward to the competition regardless, ready to give it his all!

ding!

at the chime of a housecat's generously donated collar bell, meadowshine took off. her paws struck off of the sandy shore and the crystalline grains churned in the chilly water.

she lunged ahead of her competition, prideful of her lead for a moment before falling back into the crowd. still, she pushed ahead, determined to test her limits against her fellow campers.

They'd caught a lot of fish so far, but hopefully they'd catch even more!

Appletree stared blankly at the judges. "I ah... Can't swim, sorry. Never been around this much water before, let alone swam in it."
