Howdy! My name is Anne Carson Ontko and I go by AC or Anne Carson.  I joined the Survival Swim School team in June 2024.

Yes!  My first name IS Anne Carson and I have a middle name also!  😊  I grew up in Bryan-College Station and am the second of five children. I have an older sister and three younger brothers.  I love to read, swim, hike, play volleyball, and hang out with my family and friends.

I am attending Texas A&M University where I am pursuing a degree in Public Health and will eventually attend nursing school.  Whoop!  Gig 'Em Aggies!   

I have a heart for children and missions as well and was able to go on a mission trip to Kenya this summer where I was able to serve, evangelize, and share my faith with others.  Recently, I went to Jamaica as well on a mission trip where we built a home for a local family, visited elderly shut-ins, and provided some basic medical and dental care.  I love being able to serve others!

I am beyond excited to join the Survival Swim School of the Brazos Valley team, provide maintenance and stroke lessons, and build relationships with all the students and parents!

Howdy!

I'm Allison Herrington and you can call me WaterMom!

 I was born in Buffalo, TX but moved to Bryan when I was a baby so I guess I am a Bryan native.  I've been married for 14 years and have 4 children.  I also have one grandchild and another on the way!  

I have a passion for health and wellness and love seeing how exercise can change and improve the lives of those who participate.  I have been in the fitness industry for over 20 years and have taught water aerobics, group fitness, Silver Sneakers, and much more!  

In my freetime, I enjoy watching ALL Aggie sports and I lead Praise & Worship at my church, Lifepoint Christian Church.  I've recently joined my passion for health & wellness with my love for serving and have begun organizing women's events with Faith in Action - Women's Health & Wellness Conference.  This conference is a chance to learn about all things Health & Wellness in a fun, comfortable, and interactive environment.

I'm excited about the opportunity to bring Water Aerobics to the Survival Swim School family!
