Parents: Triathlon Forms are here!  The triathlon is a mini-triathlon that is fun and fairly easy to complete.  Participation in the triathlon is mandatory for all Varsity members, except seniors.  Varsity seniors are encouraged to participate.  Coach Apple and Coach Burgess will talk to the JV swimmers and the divers about their participation requirements. We are collecting entries differently this year. ALL Entry and Liability Forms and Dues are due to Coach Barker by  Friday, April 22nd.
