If your child has enjoyed summer swimming so much that you want them to continue year round, then this email is for you!  If that isn't for you for whatever reason, then you can stop reading now and delete this message.

Below is forwarded information that the year round team sent regarding registration for their team.  I will emphasize that "this team fills quickly and online registration opens online June 23rd" as sometimes they fill up on day 1. If you have questions about the team, I can answer some questions or point you in the direction of a family whose kids swam with this team last year.

Coach Susan
