The Monday Message

January 30, 2023

Head Coach's Message

The One Hour Swim is coming to an end. This Tuesday is your last opportunity to compete in this event. If you are interested in the challenge, let me know. I have openings during workouts on Monday and Tuesday. You can schedule with me or one of the other coaches.

Remember this is a national competition that is all about participation. The more people who do it, the better we do. Last year we had the most participants and won! Let’s try to go back-to-back and win again this year!!

Check out the All Time Top Twenty Swimmers for the One Hour Swim. Take a look at these records and see if you can get your name on the board this year!

If you have further questions, feel free to reach out.

Civic Heater Update

We are working closely with the city to get back to Civic as soon as possible. The maintenance crew is currently still waiting on the part to fix the issue. Once the part is received, they should be able to solve the problem relatively quickly. The coaching staff knows that this is an inconvenience for some of our members and we appreciate your patience. We will keep you updated when we get more information.
