Hi Team, The board and coaches are actively working behind the scenes to get everything ready for opening day in one month! We still really need to get a few key people to step up and fill some crucial volunteer roles. Stroke and Turn Judges We absolutely can not have meets without trained stroke and turn judges. Learning how to be an official is one of the best ways to learn the strokes, understand the process, be a more involved swim parent, AND immensely help the team! All of the...

Hello Stingrays! It is time for our next mini fundraiser for 2024!

Hi Team, Coming up on the March 5th ballot will be a vote on Measure B. As you are aware, Benicia is in a budget crisis. This is due in part to our aging population, low property tax revenue due to the low turnover of Benicia homes, low tax income from Benicia businesses (we don't have a large Target, Walmart, etc), and lack of land that can be used to develop tax-generating businesses. "The City has already cut 5% of its workforce and nonessential programs and services. Without Measure B,...
