Swimming resumes, Jr. Frostbite camp, raffle latest
Hi all,
Regular swimming resumes Monday, Jan. 8.
Our Jr. Frostbite camp for Cubs/Sharks takes place the following weekend (Jan. 12-14). The camp will start on Friday, 4 to 6:30 pm, with all Cubs and Sharks. Saturday morning will include Cubs from 6 to 9 am with Sharks joining from 7:30 to 9. Both Cubs and Sharks will join the Saturday afternoon session from 4 to 6 pm. And on Sunday morning, we'll have Cubs again from 6 to 9 am with Sharks joining from 7:30 to 9 am. Good luck to all!
A reminder that the territorial swim meet is coming up Feb. 9-11.
And lastly, a note that we still have not secured our regular Saturday morning 6 am time slot. Carol is working on a plan to make the best use of the 9-11 am slot that we do have. Stay tuned.
