Hi Walden families,

It's hard to believe that the first practice of the 2026 season is tomorrow, June 1. We're excited the season is here. For those that have not seen the schedule yet, here is the practice schedule for afternoon practices:

Afternoon Practices: June 1 - 17 (Dates subject to change)

• 5 - 5:30 p.m.
  All 8 and under swimmers
• 5:30 - 6:15 p.m.
  All 9 and 10 year old swimmers
• 6:15 - 7 p.m.
  All 11 and 12 yr old swimmers
• 7 - 7:45 p.m.
  All 13 and over swimmers

I've had a few families ask if they can attend different practice times due to other conflicts and the answer is always YES! We want our swimmers in the pool as much as possible and are happy to be flexible. 

One note: we only have half of the pool for afternoon practices so some groups may be more crowded than others due to the number of swimmers in certain age groups. We will do our best to be flexible and accommodate all swimmers.

Also tomorrow, Cy's Swim will be at the pool from 5 - 7 p.m. for our annual suit fitting. This year's suit is the Arena Fireflow and will be available for purchase at the pool tomorrow or at Cy's if you are unable to make it up to the pool.

As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. It looks like we're going to have another amazing season of Walden swimming.

See you at the pool.
