As the season comes to a close we want to congratulate all of you on everything you have achieved! You have tried new things, learned new skills, perfected skills that you were having trouble with and through it all you had fun.
But now as the evenings get cooler and the “Back to School” sales start we also begin to think of activities for the fall and winter. Why not continue your aquatics training during the school year?
