Wahoos Weekly: Warm‑Ups and Wiggles
Hello Wahoos Families,
What a fantastic first week of practice! It’s been so fun to see our swimmers back in the water, reconnecting with friends, meeting new teammates, and kicking off what is sure to be an amazing season. The energy on deck has been incredible, and we’re so excited to keep building momentum as we head into week two!
NEW SUITS & GEAR! Thanks to everyone who came to suit try-on.Please order ASAP by clicking here. Delivery is ~2–3 weeks (shipped to your home).
- Note: We recommend the new suit. We plan to keep this design for multiple years, so families should only need to repurchase for sizing. Older blue/black suits are still allowed. Questions regarding sizing? Contact Lani Rich 303-908-6732
