- ***Register: In SwimTopia, go to Meets and Events and scroll to Banquet and click the RSVP button.

- 8 and under swimmers will be sitting with their families
- We WILL have assigned seating (for parents/guests)to make sure everyone has a place to sit. We will not be saving seats for any swimmers/parents. This has caused a lot of stress for the banquet staff in the past and I would like to try to avoid it. Thank you for understanding. Swimmers will be at the long tables in the middle (ages 9 and up). We are also not saving seats for any swimmer this year.
- Children ages 12-years-old and below must be accompanied by a responsible adult

Pageant Ocean Swim 2026: August 8th (REMINDER)
- Coach Syd is presenting our older, stronger swimmers to participate with her in the Pageant Ocean Swim on August 8th.
- This is recommended for ages 14+ and parents would have to be on boardto help transport the swimmer (s) to Atlantic City, NJ on that day. It starts at 6:15pm. She would like to leave early in the morning and make a beach day out of it, too!
- Entry fee is $43.58, but if you are a USA club swimmer, there is a discount.
- The swim is 1.2 miles
- If you or your swimmer are interested, please reach out to her with any questions. 717-693-2635 or [email protected]
OTHER REMINDERS!
- Playground, volleyball, tennis courts, basketball courts are OFF LIMITS during swim meets. These areas will be closed during all home meets. Please keep you swimmers close to the staging area! If your swimmer isn't in the seating area (information in Sunday News #8), coaches WILL NOT hunt for them. They run the risk of missing their swimming event. This is not a new rule for our team as Coach Barb implemented this years back. Swimmers should conserve their energy!
- Pictures and Videos: This is a reminder that there should be NO PICTURES OR VIDEOS FROM BEHIND THE STARTING BLOCKS. There is a zero tolerance policy for filming/photos from behind the blocks. This is for the protection of all of our swimmers. Thank you for following this protocol!
PHOTO DRIVE (NEW)
If you have any photos from the season, please use this link to put them in the 2026 Skyline photo drive!
Speaking of photos, do we have any talented parents who would want to put together a video for the banquet? Please email me and let me know!! Thanks!!
See you at some point this week!
