Good evening, WaveRiders!

Thank you for everyone’s patience as we did our best to try to reschedule the Magnolia Green meet this week. After two back-to-back rained-out meets, the forecast is looking like more of the same for Monday’s meet against Queensmill. We’ll keep a close eye on the weather and communicate any changes as early as possible. In the meantime, let’s cross our fingers and stay hopeful because nothing says summer swim team like a little suspense from Mother Nature!
