We will be changing the short course season banquet date to April 25th at 6pm! This was the most popular response on the survey sent out. An additional RSVP will be sent out this week to plan for attendance!

I did not realize when choosing the banquet date that it fell on Good Friday - please fill out the survey below to let us know which date works best for your family to attend our 2025 Short Course Season Banquet. Whiever date receives the most responses will be our date for the banquet! Thank you for your patience with this - finding a date that avoided all the spring breaks, Y Nationals, and Good Friday/Easter has proven challenging!

Congratulations to Liliyn Schultz, Ari Bell, Aurora Cook, Chloe Holthaus, Harper McGuire, Bella Larson, Amelia Lane, Madelyn Tapperson, Aislyn Frees, Ali Schultz, Addy Parker, Julie Tang, Lexie Hurst, Bea Sullivan, Eleanor Short,...
