Hello! The city has not cleared us to begin practices next week due to a chemical imbalance of our freshly plastered beautifully revived Orland pool. We will receive an update Friday, 5/16 to see if we are cleared to begin our swim season on Monday 5/19. Please send all the good vibes that this issue is resolved next week. 🤞🏾

If so, the Stroke and Turn Clinic will be offered Mon & Tue 5/19 & 20, regular practice the rest of that week (wed-fri).

Regular after school practice is 330pm for returning swimmers and 5pm for new swimmers. Once school is out, June 9th will be morning practice for the assigned groups. 

We will be off Memorial Day 5/26.

Regular practice Tues 5/27. 

Then the remainder of the Stroke and Turn clinic (5 day clinic focusing on 1 stroke per day and Friday all 4 for the IM) will then finish wed-fri 5/28-5/30. 

Nearly all returning swimmers signed up for the clinic minus several who had a conflict with fair. If your child no longer has a conflict, please reply if they would like to be added to the Stroke and Turn clinic and venmo @Orland-Otters $15 for this killer deal clinic rate. There are very few spots left for 330pm and a little over a dozen for the 430pm time slot.

There will be no regular practice on Stroke and Turn Clinic days, and the new swimmer assessments will also be pushed to when we are able to enter the pool May 19th, still 5pm. 

Please reply if you have any questions or concerns. Hope to get the green light for Monday May 19th to get our Otters in the water! Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Best,

Your Otters Board 💙🦦
