2015 Summer Registration
You may register by mail by filling out the registration forms (available
from Cindy Ford, please contact her) along with payment to me
(address noted on form). I encourage everyone to register soon, once
age groups are filled up, they will be closed. Also, please note that
while summer swim league is fun and we will make your kids better
swimmers, they need to have a basic understanding of how to swim.
Swimmers should be able to swim the length of the pool, unassisted,
within a 2-minute time period. Additionally, swimmers ages 7+ should
have a basic understanding of at least two of the four strokes. If you
have questions on this, please let me know.
SUITS: Suits will remain the same from last year. If you need a new suit
and know the size, you can order it online (please contact Cindy Ford
for the link). If you need to try on a suit, the Swim Shop will be holding
a suit fitting at the Veranda Club on March 22nd from 1:00pm – 3:00pm.
You can purchase suit(s) directly from them.
LEAGUE FEE: Every swimmer MUST be registered with the league before
they can swim. This is a separate annual fee and cannot be included
in your Waves payment. Cost is $24 per swimmer (including 15-18 year
olds) and covers the coordination from the league to set up the meets,
refs, insurance, etc. If you swam last year, you’ve probably already
been sent a reminder. Please do this asap, we will not be able to put
your swimmer on the team roster until this is complete.
