Long Course Season

The Long Course season will be starting in May and will be continuing through to the end of July. All Holiday breaks will mirror respective school districts' breaks and we will send out that information as we approach those days. After registration, payments will be billed upon the first of every month, the amount will depend on what level your athlete is registered at. As with our short course season, if for whatever reason you will be taking a break for another activity, sports, vacation, etc., a written notice must be submitted within 30 days to avoid further monthly charges. Please reach out to Eric Huntsman with your 30 days notice.
