Swim Team Kickoff Picnic
Come join our Elks swim team family at the North Boulder Park shelter next Wednesday, June 5th at 5:30 pm. This is a great time before swim meets begin to re-connect with families and friends from past seasons and welcome the new families to the Elks swim club. Bring a picnic for your family and we will have dessert for all.
For those who signed up for the Elks swim team Big/Little fish program, come meet your buddy for the season and get to know your coaches. We will be handing out Elks swim team T-shirts for those swimmers who did not make the initial swim team meeting. We will also have a designated table for gear swap for those who have lightly used suits and caps that can be handed down to younger swimmers.
Bring a Frisbee, bring a ball, bring a lawn chair, bring your smiles, bring your dinner, and get to know your summer swim team as we unite for our first upcoming home swim meet.
