Greenville Splash Masters
January News Splash 2018
January Resolutions
We have a full year of exciting events, swim meets, travel events, adult learn to swim, group open water swims and so much more. USMS is implementing some new fitness events this year that we will offer during regular workout times and we want to start a breakfast club after Saturday workouts. We are looking for a few individuals that can volunteer to be on a meet planning committee for our summer meet and if you would like to help volunteer with adult learn to swim in April let Leslie know. If you have ideas for our team, just let our advisory board members know.
January is the time to renew or join United States Masters Swimming and to pay your Greenville Splash membership dues. See the links below.
