HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM) – Competitive swimming has been a hallmark of high school athletics along the Lakeshore.
That legacy is featured in a new documentary, “Water is My Sky,” which is a labor of love for Holland High graduate Brian Tremml. “It’s a feature documentary about the world of elite, competitive swimming,” he said on “WHTC Morning News” during a Wednesday interview. “During my time in Holland growing up, swimming was the activity that I devoted most of my free time to. I swam for Holland High and went on to swim at the University of Iowa, so I embarked on creating a film that would portray the sport in a way that I thought was true to it.”
Tremml was joined by fellow filmmaker Kiel Nowakowski and another Holland High product, Taylor Garcia, in the project. A free, 9 PM outdoor showing is slated for Friday (June 4, 2021) at Bouws Pool off of Fairbanks Avenue in Holland, with donations accepted to help offset the costs of the documentary.
