Swim meet

 

MAC MEET: Those attending the meet this weekend in Morgan Hill will receive a meet guide later this week with details (timeline, volunteer shifts, etc) about the upcoming meet along with event list. If your swimmer is newer to these kinds of meets, be sure to check out the “Parent Info” tab of the site.  There are great resources available there.

 

AGE GROUP CHAMPIONSHIPS: Congrats to JV swimmer, Avery Oldfield for competing in her first Age Group Champs meet on Friday in Hollister.  She swam two lifetime bests in the 100 Back and 50 Free.  WAY TO GO AVERY!!!

 

RENO MEET: Looking for a great meet to attend this summer?  Come join us in mid-July at the July 12-14 Silver State Championship meet in Reno.  This is a team travel meet for the JV+, Prep, Varsity and Senior swimmers (meaning they are chaperoned, work with coaches/chaperones to get their meals, have lodging, transportation and team apparel provided.)  All Race Team, Gold and JV swimmers are welcome to attend with parent supervision. It is ok to have JV+, Prep, Varsity and Senior swimmers also attend with a parent and not be in the chaperoned “team travel” group.  To learn more, check out the events page.  

 

SUMMER INFO: Our Summer Race Team registration will open 3/25 to all current members for the 6/10-7/21 session at Willow Glen (with classes on MW, TTh or M-Th at 9:15-10am, 3:15-4pm, 4-4:45pm, 4:45-5:30pm and 5:30-6:15pm.)  Non-current members can register starting 4/1. 

 

Our summer programming is open and ready for registration.  Besides private lessons, we also offer swim camp and junior lifeguard camp.  Check out our programs here (also on the “swim lesson & camp” tab of the website. 

 

CROSSGATES SWIMMERS: Our time at Crossgates ends on April 13. Your swimmer has choices if they would like to finish out the remainder of the Spring session at Willow Glen. Race Team will be assessed $230 for 2x/week or $345 for 4x/week for the remainder of the Spring Race Team session (4/17-5/23) by adding to the WGMS session.  

 

Monthly fee based groups (Gold, JV, JV+ and Prep) will have no changes to their billing (as they are enrolled through July) UNLESS they are dropping mid-month (and dues would be prorated for April.) 

 

Many thanks to the 42 families who have already filled out the form. Please help with our planning by filling out this form if your swimmer will extend or end their session in mid-April.
