    n 2016, a big mama bear and her two little cubs enjoyed a refreshing dip in the big, beautiful backyard pool of Gatlinburg, Tennessee resident Cindy Dorrow. Dorrow was surprised to see her ursine visitors so close to home, but she kept her wits about her enough to keep filming as much as she could.

    The Sacramento Police Department beat out six groups of Grant High School students in a friendly swim relay race on Oct. 23 at the school’s new pool.

    Officers who patrol the Del Paso Heights area near the school split up into five teams to take on the Grant High School Junior ROTC, student government, swim team and other student organizations, with the police taking the top spot and the Grant swim team taking second and third place.

    Officers swam in full uniform and bare feet (save one officer, who wore socks), while students wore swimsuits.
