Our Silent Auction Fundraiser is still on until September 14th! 

In non-Covid times, we rely mainly on hosting meets as a way to raise funds for expensive pool fees—but there have been no swim meets since early 2020. This online Silent Auction Fundraiser aims to replace some of the fundraising lost due to the pandemic.
