Spring Break swim clinic schedule

I just wanted to send out a reminder of our schedule for the spring swim clinics during Spring Break.  We will have swim clinics this Sunday, March 26th at the regular scheduled times.  There will be NO swim clinic next Sunday, April 2nd. We hope you enjoy your break.

No evening swim team offered this summer

We are sorry to announce that we will not be offering an evening swim team session this summer.  Last summer, for the first time, we attempted an evening swim team practice for swimmers that had scheduling conflicts which prohibited them from attending the morning sessions.  We were excited that we got great swimmers from this test session and wonderful families added to the team.  After reviewing how the summer went we decided that there wasn't enough benefits to continue this.  It was hard with the evening weather that we had to keep a consistent practice schedule and the evening swimmers didn't get to experience the true team environment that is important to us.  Please let us know if you have any questions about this.  Again we apologize to the families that won't be able to make the morning session work.

Official Clinics--training dates

Have you ever wondered where the best spot at a swim meet is?  Do you want to be right at the edge of the pool to watch your swimmers?  Well the solution to both of these questions is to become an official.  

The Foothills Swim Association will train any and all parents who would like to volunteer their time as an official.  We would love to have our existing and any new parents attend one of the following training sessions.
