A Board Member’s term is 3 years and each year 3 Board Members retire.

This ensures that we can start a new season with 6 experienced Board Members, who can impart their knowledge to the 3 new Board Members.

The Board's season begins each September and meets once a month. During May and June (the actual swim season) the Board will meet as needed.

Prospective Board members must have volunteered extensively through out the season in several different positions, including but not limited to setup and tear down for meets, timing, concessions and data entry.

Please contact a Board Member if you have any questions.
