Santa Maria Swim Club opens doors to summer swim season
SANTA MARIA - The Central Coast's premier competitive swim team will open the summer swim season with two programs designed with even the youngest swimmers in mind. AquaCubs and AquaBears provide age-appropriate, skills-based instruction for aspiring competitors and recreational swimmers alike. Both programs kick off June 17 with the summer season wrapping up July 24.
AquaCubs is a pre-competition swim program designed for children ages 4 and older. The 30-minute program runs Tuesdays and Thursdays which children divided into any of four groups: Little Eels (ages 4-5), Guppies (ages 6 and older), Dolphins (6 & up) and Sharks (6 & up). The cost is $70 per child for each two-week session.
AquaBears is a recreational swim team that runs throughout the eight-week season, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 5:30 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. The program is open to swimmers ages 7 and older who can swim either backstroke or front crawl across the pool. Low-key, minor competitions are offered. Sign up by June 5 for the pre-season rate of $110 per swimmer.
Signups for both summer programs, private lessons and year-round swim team programs are taken Tuesdays and Thursday from 4:45 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Paul Nelson Aquatic Center, 516 S. McClelland, Santa Maria. For more information, call 928-9655 or check the team website: SantaMariaSwim.com
The Santa Maria Swim Club is a USA Swimming Bronze Medal Club that provides instruction and training for athletes ages 5 and up. The non-profit program focuses on providing all athletes with the character and life skills necessary for success not just in swimming but in life.
