 The pool at Krumme Strasse in Charlottenburg, is where we will be until Hüttenweg re-opens all bright and shiny and clean next year.
Hopefully we can get through this year and will be back to normal before we know it! 
Thank you for your patience in the matter of the pools, we have nothing to do with the choice of pools, the BBB and the ARGE have done this for us.
I have posted the meets on this web-site so you can start making plans.
For the Early Swimmers, and their parents. Please keep a good watch on your children in the water. Even if they have their SEAPFERDCHEN they are not able to save themselves if they get into difficulty. Not until they have a SILVER Medalian are they able to save themselves and even then it is never a good idea to let the children swim on their own. Always two or more and always under your watchful eye!! Thanks for supporting them by letting them continue to learn how to swim!!!!
