| Mailboxes Each swimmer has a folder for a mailbox that we will be using to send home information, ribbons and results. These will be kept in the pool area. It is the responsibility of the swimmer to check their mailbox to see if there is anything to take home. Parents are welcome to come down on deck and check also if they wish. All information such as newsletters, meet notices, etc. Will also be posted on the bulletin board and most likely posted here on the website. |

Have you been on a swim team before but want to find a new team with a different approach to swimming? Just want to do something fun to keep in shape? Swimming the for a high school team and want an organized workout to get back in shape before the season or keep in shape after the season? You should come try out the Mariner swim team. We are a competitive swim team that competes with other YMCA teams throughout the state of Minnesota. We swim in the summer with several local meets. We also swim from September to March with meets here in the twin cities as well as some fun meets in other Minnesota cities (Duluth, Winona, Rochester, etc.). We use the YMCA four core values as our foundation and focus on personal improvement. You may begin with the team anytime throughout the season. |
