Hi Team, As of right now, practice is a go! Things could change if there is a sudden change in air quality. If anything changes, we will send out a new Splash. Please use caution if your swimmer belongs to a sensitive group or has known breathing issues. Use your best judgment if you feel your swimmer should practice today or not.
Hi Families, I am sure many of you are wondering if we will have practice today. In short, we don't know yet. Pool closures are dictated by an AQI over 151. The fire department makes this call with their EPA monitors. The pool manager is aware that we need to know as soon as he knows, and he is very good at communicating with us. We will let you know one way or the other as soon as we can. Keep an eye on your email today so you are...
Hi Stingrays! Now that Fall Swim is underway, it is time to start a quick little fundraiser! We know that our expenses are going to increase substantially next year, with our pool fees from the city increasing significantly. For MANY years, the city has charged us MUCH less than neighboring cities for pool use; they are now going to charge us at a rate similar to these other cities. In an effort to keep registration fees at a reasonable rate, we will need to have small fundraisers year-round to help...
Hi Stingrays! We have just learned that there was an issue with the printing of the League meet programs, so the information contained in it is no longer accurate. You can still purchase a meet program as a keepsake or souvenir of the event, but you can find the official meet sheet here: League Meet Program. Go Stingrays!!!
Could this possibly be the last League related email before tomorrow's meet? At this point, no promises... We have had a couple of swimmers scratch from tomorrow's meet and as a result, some of the relays have been impacted. Please review the updated Athlete Entry List so that you know exactly what events your swimmer is swimming tomorrow. Also, please write your swimmer's events on their arm tomorrow so that they know exactly what they are swimming and to help the Clerk of the Course get them situated in the...
Hi Team, Here are some updates for the week! Southampton Mini Meet Location: Southampton Swim Club Time: Warmups at 5:00pm Meet Sheet: There is none. This is a very informal meet, just for fun.

Dolfin team suits have arrived and are ready for distribution! If you will be at the pool today, our team vice president, Kendall Lara, has the suits sorted and labeled for pick up. She will be there until around 5:00, and then our team meet director, Leslie Clements, will help distribute suits for a while longer. If you are unable to come down today, Kendall will also distribute suits at the pool during the same time period this Wednesday.
