The temperature is dropping and it is much too cold out for swimming tonight. We’ll see you on Wednesday.

It was exciting to see everyone at practice today and boy was it busy! The first practice was very crowded and we want to give the kids the best experience, so we are making a shift for the rest of this week only.

5:30 – 6:30pm: 11 and older

Weather note: please check the website before you leave for practice on Tuesday. We will post to the blog if practice is cancelled due to weather. If you don’t see a post, then it’s on.

A few reminders for this week (5/20/24)

WEATHER: It looks like we may have rain at practice for a couple days this week. Our plan (as always) is to have practice even if it is raining. If there is lightening or thunder we will either delay practice or cancel it all together. Those decisions will be made as quickly as possible and posted to our blog. So if you have questions, head to our blog and hit refresh so you can stay up to date.

NEW PARENT MEETING: We will have new parent meetings during practice on Wednesday 5/22. These meetings will help all new families get familiarized with our team and how everything works. We can answer all your questions!

8 AND UNDER TRYOUTS: If you have a new-to-the-team 8 and under, they need to come to practice at least one day this week. Practice is from 4:30-5:30pm. They will be evaluated for safety to determine if they are ready for swim team.

PRACTICE: Monday – Thursday this week. No practice on Friday.
4:30 – 5:30pm: 12 and under
5:30 – 6:30pm: 13 and older

So what does this mean for your swimmer?

Age: whatever age your swimmer is today is their swim-age for the entire summer.
Year-Round Teams: Today is last day that your swimmer can practice or compete with their year-round team until the end of the summer season in order to be eligible for summer swim team. Questions? See our FAQ page for more information

We look forward to seeing everyone for afterschool practices starting on 5/20.
4:30-5:30 pm: 8 and under tryouts + all 12 and under swim practice
5:30 -6:30pm: all 13 and older swim practice
(all practices at Green Mountain Swim Club)

We did not realize how late some of the schools got out and want to make sure that swimmers have a reasonable chance of making it to practice. Thanks to everyone who made us aware of this challenge!

Monday 5/20 – Thursday 5/23
4:30-5:30pm: 12 and under
5:30-6:30pm: 13 and older

Morning practices start on Tuesday 5/28.

Swimsuit Fittings: we have the suits for one more weekend! If you missed the fitting, you can stop by the Rec Center from 3-4:30pm to try on a suit for the summer season. If you are swimming at clinic, please remember to do this BEFORE you get in the water.

Swim Club Clean Up Day: Our last clean up day is Saturday 5/11 from 9am – 2pm.

Swim Team Summer Registration: If you haven’t registered yet, what are you waiting for? We will make a final determination on the age break-downs for practice times once we have our (mostly) final numbers. As a reminder ALL SWIMMERS NEED TO BE REGISTERED IN ORDER TO ENTER THE WATER ON THEIR FIRST PRACTICE. I’m looking at you Upper Division! register here
