AND MORE GATOR NEWS…..

Here’s a brief list of what we know about our summer swim season:

– Summer swim season is a go!
– Dates for League and State are being set and all FSA teams (our swim league) are moving forward with their swim seasons as well.
– 19 year-olds will be eligible to swim this summer to help make up for the lack of summer swim in 2020.
– The boys High School season will directly overlap with our summer season. The boys are allowed to compete for high school AND their summer swim club. We hope to work with all our high school boys to find a solution for them to join us this summer. 
– COVID restrictions are unknown at this time. We will follow all guidelines to keep all kids and parents safe. 

SWIM CLUB NEWS…

– GMSC is in the process of updating their website, and it will support more automation of the annual membership process, member check-in/check-out, a member portal, a mobile app, and other features. 

– GMSC is  investing in a new chlorination system that will better support the continued safety and cleanliness of our highly-utilized pool. This investment is due both to a nationwide chlorine tablet shortage and best practice recommendations from a local pool maintenance company. 

– Once the new website goes live (target early April), we will start accepting 2021 membership applications.

– The price for a family membership will be $495 for families who join within two weeks of our website launch, and then it will increase to the standard price of $550. New members: We do not have initiation fees!

We are EXCITED for the 2021 season. We will keep you posted as we know more. Tell a friend and join us in our SUPER EXTRA JOY that our kids will be back in the water very soon.
