Social update

Coming soon to Swim & Racquet....

We hope everyone will take advantage of the many parties and social events we have planned for the season. There is something for everyone! Two fabulous June events are coming soon. Floating flicks on Saturday June 13, complete with hot dogs and popcorn! And our first big family party to kick off the summer, June jam, is on Saturday June 20. We are working on having a band from 7:00 to 10:00 pm to entertain kids and adults alike. Please watch for registration and RSVP quickly so we can plan for the food and beverage part of the evening.

We look forward to getting to know our new members as we welcome them to the best swim and tennis club in town. The May new member meeting and family picnic went off without a hitch, other than a small shower, and we have many new families to have fun with this summer. To our seasoned members, WELCOME BACK!

Let us know if you have any party ideas or would like to host any of the summer events.

Thanks!
Christen and Lori

Locker space

Would you like to store some extra dry clothes and a suit at the club? Starting immediately, we are accepting reservations for locker space in both the Men's and Women's locker rooms. Space is limited so that we can leave extras for daily use, so don't delay. Each member will be responsible for providing their own lock and locker cleanliness. We would ask that you not use the lockers to store wet clothes or towels to avoid any possible cleaning fees later. There will be a $50 fee for the season which can be charged directly to your club account. If you are interested, please see Rob Cooper at the Gazebo in the afternoons to coordinate.
