Summer Options

Hope you are enjoying the off season. There have been a few questions in regards to summer swim and dive options.

As coaches, we are allowed to work with the girls from Memorial Day through July 31. Nothing has been planned yet, but we will let you know if we put together a weekly plan to work with the girls.

The captains are also working on a weekly gathering over the summer. Look for more information to come.

Below are some other opportunities. Please note that nothing is mandatory. These are just some options for those interested in summer activities.

Any questions, let us know,


SAUK RAPIDS - This option would be for athletes with more experience. A good guide would be ability to swim the 500, and have a 50 free time of :29 or faster. Space is limited and we heard it is filling up fast. Please note that the cost this year is $140 for non-residents....see page 22 in the link below:

YMCA - This option is great for all athletes. I could not find any current information on their website. If you are interested please contact the YMCA at 253-2664.

CAMPS - There are camps for all levels all over the country. For the Minnesota swimming and diving camps, check the college websites (St. John's, St. Olaf, Gustavus, U of M, etc).

Mid-States Swim Camps has some good options, http://www.nconnect.net/~midsts/.
