Hello Swimmers & Parents
Welcome to what promises to be a very busy second half of the swimming
season. We trust that no one was badly affected by the recent poor weather
& hope to see you all at the pool tomorrow night. We look forward to
welcoming a few new members who have joined us in the new
year. We trust that everyone has settled back into their routines with the
resumption of school this week.
Remember, nominations open at the pool at 5:45pm &
close at 6:15pm so racing can get underway from 6:30pm.

also look out for your kids during the free swim.
