Aqua-Tots Swim Schools Co-Founders Ron Sciarro and Paul Preston along with CEO Craig Wright welcomed guests and members of the community including Councilmember Jeremy Whittaker and Mesa Mayor John Giles who spoke on the importance of Aqua-Tots as a community leader.
"Businesses like Aqua-Tots do more than call Mesa home," remarked Mayor Giles. "They serve as leaders who take our business community to the next level by creating new jobs and economic diversity while continuing to serve the families of Mesa and beyond. We're proud to have the Aqua-Tots Franchise Headquarters as a part of the thriving Mesa community and stand behind them as they work to make the world a safer place for children and families all over the world."

"When Jane and I began teaching swim lessons nearly 29 years ago, we were simply trying to offer parents quality swim instruction options for their children," said Aqua-Tots Co-Founder Ron Sciarro. "Little did we know that our passion for swim lessons would translate into over 105 schools in 14 countries today. This new headquarters office gives us a unique opportunity to serve our franchise owners as well as families all over the world, offering them the most advanced swim lessons available to keep children safe in and around the water for a lifetime. We will forever be grateful to our Aqua-Tots families, franchise partners and team members for walking alongside us as we've watched this dream become a reality."
