It's Time for the End-of-Season Party! Wednesday, July 28 from 6-9 p.m.!

                  ***SWIM TEAM'S END-OF-SEASON PARTY****

It's hard to believe the season is coming to an end already!

Our End of Season Party will be Wednesday, July 28th from 6 - 9.  There will be food from Town Grill, music, and lots of fun!!

We will honor our senior swimmers, give awards to swimmers in each age category (boy and girl awards for each age category), and have fun!

There will be a slideshow with highlights from the season!

***Please check the Swim Team Board for a sign up for food.

We'll be having a large cake at the End-of-Season Party, so please bring a side dish or a salad rather than a dessert. The food will be provided by the Town Grill. We'll use the sodas and water left over from the swim season donations.

If you have any questions or if you know you won't be able to get to the pool by Friday and still want us to count you in on the food, please email Lynda Pelkey (lpelkey@comcast.net) with how many family members will be coming.

Hope to see everyone there!
