The LPAC governing board is really excited to get penguins in the pool! This season will look different competitively. Most teams in our league (Valley Cabana Swim League) will be lower in numbers, LPAC included. All of the teams will be well under 100 swimmers except for LPAC and not because of talent but because of interest. The governing LPAC board chose to minimize our numbers in order to limit the number of swimmers in each practice group.
I am proud to boast that the interest in our little team is off the charts and unfortunately we had to turn some families away this season. I want to thank all of the families for recommending LPAC and returning. The league has determined this season “unofficial.” We will compete virtually and compare times via our leagues standardized HyTec computer program. We will award LPAC ribbons only, based on times and include participation ribbons. We will not be exchanging ribbons with the competing team. LPAC is not ordering a team suit this season. We will have donated suits at practices for swimmers to try beginning the second week of practices but, feel free to order your swimmer(s) an all black appropriate suit or jammer.
Our meet dates are as follows:
Time trials: 6/19
1st virtual meet: 6/26
2nd virtual meet: 7/10
3rd virtual meet: 7/17

Please Sign Informed Consent Form
LPAC is asking that each family sign an Informed Consent form. Each competitive team requires an Informed Consent for liability issues related to COVID. Attached is the form. It will also be on our website. Each family needs to print, sign, and turn in before your swimmer(s) may begin. You may turn into the clubhouse slot or bring to the first practice your swimmer(s) attend.
