Swim Team
Organized by Elizabeth Schultze and Ted Freedman
The WG Swim Team is open to all interested students who can swim at least one length of the pool. This is not a 'learning to swim' class, but is open to kids that have never raced... Its a LOT of fun ! If you join, please plan on attending as many practices as possible, and you MUST show up to the Meet, even if you decide not to compete, to support your teammates.
Practices: Will be held Mondays March 15 - April 12, Please have your children there in time to change into bathing suits and be on the bleachers with goggles in hand! We will usually say a few words, then the kids will take a quick rinse and separate into lanes.
Practice will be held as follows: Monday, March 14 Ft. Marcy Pool 3-4 Monday, March 21 Ft. Marcy Pool 3-4 Monday, March 28 Ft. Marcy Pool 3-4 Monday, April 4 Salvador Perez Pool 3:30 - 4:30 Monday, April 11 Salvador Perez Pool 3:30 - 4:30 Swim Meet ... Sunday, April 17, GCCC
The Meet: Will be held Sunday, April 17th, beginning at 8am... and usually is over by 1pm. The participants entry to the Genoveva Chavez Center is covered by their registration fee, but spectators are asked to pay a $2 admission fee to help pay for the pool rental time.
