Our season kick's off this coming Monday, May 13th!  Important notes as we prepare to start:

REGISTRATION LAST CALL:  This is the last email that will include those on the roster last year who have not yet registered for this year. Please register your swimmers now if you plan to return. We have a few groups that are full. If you get this message, please email me. Your swimmer should automatically go on a waiting list, but this feature isn’t working correctly at the moment, so I’ll maintain a list until we get it fixed in the registration system.

PAYMENT: those who haven’t yet paid, please drop off your payments at the registration table. This final step is needed to secure your swimmer’s spot on the team.
