Well, another season 2006/2007 has come to an end. Wow, where did the time go.

Anyway it was a great season with everyone improving their times, strokes and fitness.

I hope everyone has a great summer and, if you are summer swimming, I look forward to seeing you at Applewood Acres Outdoor Pool for an amazing summer swimming program.

If you aren't swimming, have a great summer and I look forward to seeing you in the fall of 2007/2008 season.

All the best.
