Helen Coyne Memorial Scholarship

Coach Helen Coyne was a pillar of the Woodside community and Swim Strong Foundation founder Shawn Slevin is proud to be one of Helen’s Girls. Back in the 1960’s athletic programs for girls were rare. She fought to ensure that young girls had the same opportunity as the boys to learn and compete through the sport of swimming.
