I want to lose 10 pounds by august 22nd. I'm going to eat really healthy. Mainly fruits and vegetables. Yogurt will be a treat. I'm going to walk 6 miles probably 4 times a week and I have a swimming pool I swim in daily. Is that possible? Should I do more?
I'm trying to target my stomach area. Is there any swimming exercises I can do that will help that?
The walk I do is in the park and is very hilly in some points. Does that help stomach area? (link)

Sit-ups, crunches and leg lifts will work this area.
Also, standing with legs shoulder width apart, hold a towel up over your head stretched between your hands. From that position, tilt right, stand up straight, tilt left, stand up straight, SLOWLY. This will work the muscles on the sides.
While you're in the pool do some oridinary exercises, like jumping jax, pushing against all that water will give you a good workout.
The walking and hills will work your legs and butt but is good general aerobic activity that is important for weight loss.
Can it be done? Probably, but do this at a leval you can sustain after August.
Start your mornings with the biggest glass of icewater you can get.
Good luck. :-)
