YeeHAW! KO Kraken Families,
It is time to get excited! The KO summer swim team will start Monday, June 8th at 5:00 PM. Sign Up If You Haven't Already!!
Practice will be held from 5PM – 7PM, Monday through Friday, at Dormont Pool. We may have a bonus in July, but let’s see how the summer splashes out! The daily practice schedule is as follows:
- 5PM – 5:45 PM: New families/ Beginners
- 5:45 PM – 6:20 PM: The whole team
- 6:20 PM – 7PM: Advanced swimmers
If you aren't sure which group your swimmer(s) falls into, please ask away!
We will also have a parent meeting on Monday, June 15th to discuss the team, the league, and what it means to be a part of our swim team community from 7-7:30PM in the parking lot. I will also meet parents in the parking lot next week from 4:15- 4:45 PM and 6:30-7PM (no advanced swimmers).
Pool Entry and Passes:
Please note that parents cannot enter the pool area unless they have a pass or pay $5 at the gates. KO Kraken swimmers should tell the cashiers they are with the team; the cashiers will keep a tally in their system and charge $5 per swimmer per entry. Swimmers who have pool passes can simply scan and enter.
It is highly encouraged that you buy a pool pass. You can purchase them here: https://boro.dormont.pa.us/dormont-pool-season-passes/
If you purchase a pass, I will knock off half of your parent volunteer fee. Rates are as follows:
Resident Rates (Green Tree; Dormont):
- Resident Child (ages 3-17): $85
- Resident Adult (18+): $105
- Resident Family: $185
Castle Shannon Resident Rates (Half price via Rec Share Program):

I can't wait to spend the summer with you! I am here if you have any questions or concerns. See you next week!
P.S. I will work on getting a full pool schedule to you as soon as I have it.
