Summer Time with AquaHawgs 

There are a lot of people starting to plan for summer.  We are still working on our practice schedule for the summer.  This year, we will be continuing with our Hawgs Red training group.  This is different than in previous years.  We would like for these swimmers to train and compete with us through the Long Course season.  This will help these swimmers maintain consistency in training throughout the summer.  

We will not offer Rookie Hawgs during the months of June & July.  We would like these swimmers to join with one of our summer league teams (Har-Ber Ducks, Jones Center Jellyfish, and Wilson Park Wahoos).
