PIZZA PARTY!

Our annual end of the year team party will take place on Tuesday, July 28th from 6-8PM at the Freehold YMCA Outdoor Pool. We will have the whole swim club to ourselves to celebrate one last time as a family. All awards won at Championships will be distributed at this event. There is a declaration open so that we know how much pizza to order.  If you declared a while ago, please double check and correct your RSVP so that we don't order too much or to little :-)

Coaches' Gift

Today is the last day to contribute to the coaches' gift.  If you have not already, please consider add to the collection for our amazing Sharks coaches.  They are a HUGE part of the reason why your swimmer has been having such a fantastic summer!  Remember... these are mostly kids.  Half of them are volunteering their time! Let's show them how much we truly appreciate all that they have done for our families <3

SUMMER LEAGUE A PALOOZA TRI-MEET

Please declare your swimmer for the Summer League a Palooza swim meet!! This will be a fun Y of the Jersey Shore summer league teams meet and will be held on Saturday, August 1st. If your swimmer is interested in year-round club swimming, this would be a good meet to attend. This meet will take place at the Old Bridge YMCA, located at 1 Marino Park Drive in Old Bridge. It will be an indoor meet with (optional) block starts. Warmups will begin around 8:30AM. There will be duckies and ribbons for win and place at this meet. It is a great chance to showcase the sportsmanship, team spirit and skill that we have been building all season!
