Weather Update 7/25/23:

Swim Team Practice: Today (7/25) evening practice is cancelled due to storms. Tomorrow’s (7/26) AM practice is also cancelled due to the biathlon.

We are so excited about the summer swim team season 2023! Our summer swim team program is an opportunity for kids to build their swim skills in a fun outdoor atmosphere with some friendly competition. The swim team is for swimmers who are 18 and younger, who are not in college yet, and who can pass the Basic Swimmer’s Test. We will be having regular season practices, four dual meets, a relay carnival for our 10 & under swimmers, and Championships to finish off our season!

After completing payment for your registration, you will receive an email with a link to the registration form where you can enter the information for your swimmer(s).
