It's that time of year to dig out those bathing suits, dust off those goggles and get ready to swim!!!

We are excited for the upcoming swim season and have LOTS of important things to share, so please be sure to read this ENTIRE message.

LOOKING FOR: An eager and willing parent to step up to be the Swim Team Coordinator. Your swim moms have happily stayed on an extra year but would really like to pass on the baton to the next team. Our desire is to have someone step up NOW and shadow us to ensure a smooth transition for the 2018 season. Please contact Deana Menikoff ([email protected]) if you are interested.

REGISTRATION: Registration will begin in mid-March. All swim meets, practices and events are listed below.

SAVE THE DATE: Please stop by the MEET AND GREET on Saturday, April 22nd, 9-11am! Stop by the pool and say hi to your teammates and coaches, get fitted for swim suits, and enjoy coffee and doughnuts.

VOLUNTEERING: In order to make the meets a success, we need LOTS of volunteers. Each family is required to volunteer at a minimum of 3 meets. This year we will be doing volunteer sign-ups differently. In early May, you will have a 2 week window to sign up for your volunteer spots. If you do not sign up, we will happily do so for you. Our hope is that by signing up closer to the meets you will better know your availability and spare your swim moms hours of trying to fill volunteer spots.

SPONSORS: We are so thankful for our sponsors and would love to have more businesses help support our swimmers. If you are a business owner and would like a great opportunity to advertise your company while supporting the Barracudas. We are offering different levels of sponsorship. Please let Deana Menikoff ([email protected]) know if you are interested.
