Did you get an SLSC flyer? Wanna swim?

Did you get a blue SLSC flyer at your school?  Did your child bring one home from school?  Did a friend give you one?

Did you watch the Olympics and see Michael Phelps?  Have you heard of Sudbury's Alex Baumann winning gold in the Los Angeles Olympics in in 1984?

Do you like water?  Do you want to be active?  Is hockey or soccer not for you?

If any of the above answers are YES, then you should give us a call and come in the fall for a free two-week trial.  The training season has now ended but we will be starting again in September/October (exact dates to be firmed up this summer).

Until then, review our Registration Package from last year and feel free to browse the website to see our club updates as the 2008-2009 season progressed.  Also, feel free to email us at swimclub@laurentian.ca - we will continue to respond throughout the summer.

Stay safe and have a good summer.
