We can’t wait to see our swimmers and families again! Plan to arrive a little early on the first day of practice to make sure you don’t miss any announcements from the coaches. We will have a welcome/Q&A session for parents during the first day of practice too(8:10 and 9:10am by the front gate). As a reminder, here are practice times for the first day:
