Hi Waverunners!

Monday is the first day of practice at the pool--so exciting! Just remember, the first week of practice is always a little crazy! Please bear with us as the swimmers get to know the coaches and learn where to go. Our coaches are SUPER EXCITED to work with the kids and have prepared thoughtful practices that will help your child improve his/her swimming abilities and to HAVE FUN while doing it!

This week our swimmers will do a combination of dry land practice and swimming in the pool, so please come dressed/prepared for both (swimsuit, goggles, towels, etc). Our coaches know and understand that some of our swimmers haven’t been in the pool since last summer and are ready to meet your child at his/her level.

The weather looks iffy next week. As always I will be monitoring the weather and if I need to cancel practices due to bad weather/storms I will send all notifications through the Remind App. If you haven’t already, please see below on how to sign up.

Please email [email protected] with any questions or concerns that you have. See you on the pool deck on Monday!
