    • We will then take a quick break for cake and then head to the clubhouse to see the annual slideshow that Coach Mary puts together - it's a recap of our FANTASTIC 2019 season!
    • NEW for 2019: we will be hosting a late-night swim session after the slideshow, so bring a bag packed with a suit and towel for after the celebration is complete!
    • We will also have an envelope for each family with any leftover stuff from the season (ribbons, t-shirts, pictures, etc.).
