Winter Session is schedules for February 16th to April 2nd.
1st day tryouts. Currently LA County Department of Public Health guidelines permits only one swimmer per lane. In order to comply with these guidelines we will split up the groups and swim on separate days. Swimmers assigned to Coach Ken will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Swimmers assigned to Coach Will will meet on Wednesdays and Fridays. Since this will reduce the numbers of practices, the fee for this session is prorated.
Our priority is to get back in the water safely and as soon as we can while following state, county and local guidelines. We are making every effort to provide meaningful and safe programs for the youth of Santa Monica. We would like to thank you for your patience and understanding during these times. Dates may be subject to change depending on the current information that is given to us from our local officials.
