If you have had other parents ask you about our program and have shown interest in joining, the summer season is the best time to do that. If you have older children that are considering swimming in college, staying in the water over the summer is necessary to keep working on endurance and technique that they will need for the future. If your children know someone that is considering swimming high school but they haven’t been on a team before, this is also a great time to build confidence in their ability in the water.
