Weekend of June 11th

/in

It is great to see so many families enjoying the refurbished baby pool and turf areas! Summer is getting into full swing with swim and dive team practices and meets starting this weekend, the New Member Meet and Greet this Sunday (details below), and the School’s Out Party next Friday (and food trucks).

Forward Jump? Pencil Position?  Uh, what does that mean?  It means, give our dive team a try.  If you think your child can’t do it, don’t worry, the forward jump is literally one of the events for the younger kids (look, even you can do a forward jump off the diving board).  We have a super-experienced coach who teaches the kids everything they need to know starting with: forward jump!  We should also mention that the dive team is crazy social as well. The kids do a lot of chatting with each other in between dives while in line.  Give it a try!

Boring, But Necessary:  A reminder that the pool will open at Noon this Saturday due to swim team time trials and will close this Wednesday at 4pm due to the B meet.
