We are thrilled to announce Madeline Adili as our Gryphon Greatness winner for March!

Maddie has been absolutely pivotal in the development and promotion of our new Women's Only Small Group Swim Lesson program this year. Since September, she has dedicated herself to listening to feedback from our swim community and identifying a gap in our program offerings. Drawing from her extensive experience in various aquatic environments, Maddie recognized the profound impact that Women's Only swim lessons have on adult swimmers, particularly in building water confidence, supporting drowning prevention, and enhancing personal fitness.

Leveraging her years of experience, Maddie took the lead in designing, planning, and promoting the lessons for the Winter semester. Her efforts were key in not only launching the program but also ensuring its ongoing success. Maddie’s dedication went beyond just program development; she was present at every session, teaching in the water and facilitating important conversations about creating welcoming spaces for female-identifying community members.

Through her work, Maddie has exemplified our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion principles, embodying the Gryphon Way with her commitment to fostering inclusive and empowering environments for all swimmers.

We are proud to honor Maddie with the Gryphon Greatness award for March – her passion, leadership, and dedication make her more than deserving of this recognition!
