All,

Thank you for registering to swim with the Barracudas this summer! We are currently at 60 swimmers for the 2021 swim season with hopes to add more residents to the roster over the next month. Get your friends and neighbors to join in the fun (the more families we have on the team the less volunteer shifts for everyone!) 

This week, we will have our first Sunday Stroke Clinic at Lilly Gulch. Parents are allowed inside the pool at Lilly Gulch, but are expected to follow guidelines and wear masks (masks are also required for the swimmers until they enter the water). I will be at Lilly Gulch to help with check-in and answer any questions you might have about the upcoming season. Please plan to arrive between 4:50 and 5 p.m. so we can start as close to 5 p.m. as possible and have your swimmers in their swimsuits ready to swim. Don't forget goggles! 

Please send payments for the stroke clinics via Venmo or PayPal, or you can bring a check to the clinic payable to "Swim Team Grant Ranch". These sessions are $10/swimmer for one week or $15/swimmer for both weeks. 

We still have a few spots left for both weeks: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4AABA72BAAFF2-grant1

We have updated the website with the 2021 meet schedule and are working on the volunteer signups, which we are targeting to open on May 16th. We will give plenty of notice so you can mark your calendars to grab your spots. 

Also, please save the date for Monday, June 7th from 6-8 p.m.. We will be having picture night at the Village Center along with a fun tie dying event for the swimmers. Each swimmer will receive a Barracudas shirt to make unique and wear for the season! 

I would like to send a very special thank you to all of the Swim Team Parent Committee members who are actively planning to ensure this summer is fun for everyone. If you have ideas on how to make the season more fun, please feel free to reach out to anyone on the Parent Committee.

In addition, thanks to everyone who has stopped by the Village Center to pay your 2021 fees. If you haven’t have a chance to do that, they are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday - Friday. 

I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the pool!
