Maya Gunther, 15, assists Asml Idow, 5, on Friday with an impromptu swimming lesson at the Kennedy Park Pool in Lewiston. Idow does not meet the height requirement to swim alone, so lifeguards often take turns giving him tips on staying afloat. The city pool is open to the public from noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with free membership required. It will remain open until Aug. 17. Andree Kehn/Sun Journal
