Starting Sept. 2, FAST monthly dues will be $20 for the first swimmer, $10 for the second swimmer, and the third swimmer from a family is free of monthly dues. In addition to the team dues, a $30 punch pass, good for 30 swims, will go into effect. This punch pass will approximately last for 8 weeks, depending on how many times a swimmer attends practice per week.
