SKILLS & SKILLETS
Fun and Learning in the Pool - ALL TEAM event! Our annual SKILLS & SKILLETS event is coming on Sunday, November 30 from 9:15-10:45 A.M. at the YMCA. This is A LOT of fun. Our high The “big kids” do a great job with the younger kids and everyone has fun eating pancakes with their friends after swimming. ALL SWIMMERS are invited to participate!
Here are the details:
Our Senior Practice Group swimmers will be running a stroke clinic in the pool with all of our younger swimmers. After the clinic, all swimmers get to eat a pancake breakfast that is prepared and served by swim team parents!
This is a fundraiser for our team. The cost is $15 per participant, and the proceeds of this event help fund team expenses.
Register by clicking here: Skills and Skillets Signup and selecting the Attend/Decline button. A $15 fee will be charged to your Booster account.
