Good evening everyone and happy summer! Our summer swim season 2025 begins Tuesday (weather permitting 🤞).

Here is a recap of the most pertinent details regarding start of season

1. We use the Swimtopia app for streamlining communications. You can see: meet dates & locations (as well as mark your swimmer's availability to attend); your swimmer's events, your volunteer job assignment, weather delays and cancellations, and more! We highly recommend, if you haven't already done so, please download that app. There is a free version, which is perfectly fine. There is also one with a small subscription which allows you immediate access to your swimmer's event place and time. 

2. The team MUST have a 2025 concussion form signed before your swimmer may enter the pool. You can complete a paper one, or submit electronically: https://d1nmxxg9d5tdo.cloudfront.net/4542/messages/95ca344aaad92db5a1c2a7c263668d2042f55e37/Concussion_Protocal.pdf?1746719425.

3. Practices begin Tuesday, May 27 (weather permitting)

The first 2 practice days will be for evaluations, and are scheduled by last name (of registering parent). Those times are as follows:

A-F @8am;

G-Mad @9am;

Mar-Smi @10am;

Ste-Z @11am.

4. We will be hosting a Team Spirit Night & Fundraiser at Rita's Italian Ice, Locust Grove the evening of Tuesday, May 27, from 4-8pm

5. Team color is Royal Blue. We only wear these suits to Swim Meets. Practice suits can be any design, color or pattern. Girls' should be a 1 piece; Boys' may be briefs or jammers. A team swimcap and T-shirt are included in the registration fee, and typically arrive the first week or 2 of the season. For your convenience, here is a link to the team store.

6. Parents should have signed up for volunteer jobs that they are willing (and in some instances, trained) to do. If you haven't yet, please reach out.

Any more questions, just ask 😊 Go Barracudas!
