REMINDERS: Clean Up Day + Swimsuit Fitting

Quick reminders for this week…

1- Clean up day at the pool is on Saturday 5/3 from 9am – 2pm. If you are a swim team member, check in with Danielle and she will enter you into a fun prize drawing for Gator gear for helping out.
2- Team Swimsuit Fitting is on Saturday 5/3 from 2:45pm – 4:30pm at the Green Mountain Rec Center.
If your child is swimming at clinic, please have them fitted before they get in the water. If your swimmer already knows their swimsuit size, you do not need to attend. We will have a link to order suits posted to the blog by Sunday. If you aren’t sure about ordering a suit this year, that’s OK too. Team suits are not required but we do suggest that your swimmer wears a suit to meets that is black or green so it’s easier for the coaches to find them, both in and out of the water. Note: We will have the same suit as last year.

Summer Registration Open

PLEASE READ THIS IMPORTANT MESSAGE: We expect a large number of swimmers this year and will implement a waiting list in order to cap the total number of swimmers at a safe level for our pool and each individual age group.

What does this mean for you?
step 1: register your swimmers for the team. DO NOT PAY.
step 2: you will be notified by May 1st if your registration is complete or if you are on the waiting list.
step 3: if you are on the waiting list, all final placements will be made by Tuesday 5/27.

We accept swimmers of all levels. However, all swimmers 8 and under must be able to swim 25 meters without assistance of a lane line or wall and must not be a drowning risk. We understand how exciting it is to be a part of the swim team and also understand that some kids just aren’t ready. This is for the safety of the entire team. All new 8 and under swimmers are required to to try-out the week of 5/19 in order to have their skill level assessed.
