Hey Surrey Sea Lions! I know it’s been a while since we have all seen each other and trained together, but guess what? We might be able to swim together, but 6 feet apart (of course) this fall for winter maintenance.
At this time, we would love to know if you are interested in joining us this winter in order to plan for the upcoming season! Of course there are some rules and expectations from the facility that we must follow and adhere to: 1. No late entries will be permitted (4:30pm) 2. All swimmers must come in swimsuit with a full water bottle. 3. No lockers will be used 4. No showers will be allowed 5. Kick-boards and pull-buoys will not be given or shared (purchased by swimmer prior) 6. Social Distancing at all times Please complete this one question survey to let us know your upcoming intentions. https://forms.gle/g5peGt61DxA32tbG8

We had a great time at our meet and I was really impressed with all the effort you guys put into making this meet awesome! We only have 3 weeks left until provincials, so that means that practices will start to get harder in the upcoming weeks. It is important that you make as many practices as you can! swimmers may feel a little more tired or sore than usual but that means that they are getting stronger! On July 29-30th we have the North Delta meet. this is the last meet before regionals so it is the last chance to race before that meet. the deadline to sign up for this meet is 6PM on JULY 24TH. please make sure that you sign up your swimmers by then!
