NDAC COVID-19 UPDATE
SPRING - SUMMER - SEPTEMBER & BEYOND

SPRING

NDAC's Short Course Season came to an abrupt halt on March 13 due to Covid-19. Bard College closed Steveson Gymnasium and Pool.

2020 SC Championship Meets, NDAC's End of Season Banquet and then Long Course Meets were all cancelled.

Through the tireless efforts and tenacity of Coach Storrs and with special thanks to the Red Hook Pool, NDAC was able to start practicing again on July 6.

NDAC is very proud of our coaches and swimmers for everyone's adherance to strict Covid-19 guidelines to keep our swimmers and our community safe this summer.

SUMMER

In July NDAC started small with 24 NDAC Long Course swimmers, one swimmer per lane.

In August NDAC was able to increase the number of swimmers practicing to 36 (4 swimmers in double-wide lanes to maintain 6' spacing). Many of our younger (Group 2) swimmers were able to start practicing again.

SEPTEMBER

In September NDAC will continue to practice outside for as long as possible. We will have 48 swimmers practicing in 4 Practice Groups, including 12 Group 2 swimmers.

BEYOND

NDAC remains hopeful that we can have a 2020-21 swim season beyond September. We are working hard to make that happen.

NDAC awaits a mid-September update from Bard College regarding if/when we can return to the Stevenson Gymnasium Pool. We are also looking at alternative local pool options to keep NDAC swimming.

If we are able to offer practices in October and beyond, first priority will be given to returning NDAC swimmers.

Swimmers new to NDAC should email info@ndac.us to be added to our emai list to recieve updates.
Please include your swimmer's age and a brief description of his/her swim experience/ability.
