UPDATE 1/28 -EQUIPMENT THEFT, HOW YOU CAN HELP/THANK YOU COMMUNITY
UPDATED 1/24
As most of you have heard by now our storage area was robbed over the weekend. Items taken include: New 10x10 canopy, PA System, Speaker Cords, 2 printers, Spider Box, Cases of Soda/Water, and stop watches.
Local media has done a great job spreading the word about our cause: KMIR, KSEQ, the Desert Sun, and Team 1010KXPS (Prep Sports Weekly and Buehlers Day Off) as well as the swimming media at swimswam.com.
If you or anyone you know in the community can help us get these items back or replace them we would appreciate any help we can get. Please email [email protected] or call/text 760 318-SWIM. http://claropools.com has offered a cash reward for info leading to the capture and conviction of our thieves. Contact the Palm Springs Police with any info.
We can't thank our membership that jumped into action and offered help. It means so much to us, both the offers of help, the leg work of finding items, and the donations themselves.
