🏊♀️SWIM AROUND WASHINGTON🏊♀️
We are so excited to bring this program back for the 5th year in a row! If you need an excuse to help you stay active in the pool, this one is for you! 👏
📌What is Swim Around Washington?
It is a self-paced lap swim challenge where you come in during lap swim times and see how far you can swim in the entire month of October. We have a tracking poster that will be located on deck to help you keep track of your distance. Upon registration, you'll choose which specific length you hope to swim (1, 5, 10 or 20 miles) within the month which correspond with prizes from local businesses.
📌Who can register? Anyone ages 6 or older who can swim laps independently.
📌What if I am not a member? That's not a problem! Members and nonmembers are welcome to register! Once you sign up, your registration fee covers your lap swim time during lap swim hours if you are a nonmember. You'll need to visit the front desk to check in each time you swim.
📌What do I get for registering? What are the prizes? Every participant will receive a commemorative YMCA water bottle. Participants have a chance of winning a prize depending on which challenge level they end up completing. Exact prizes will be announced on October 1. We can't wait to share those with you!
