Dear Penguin Famly,
LPAC had an amazing season this year! We were 3 and 2 in our dual meets and we came in 3rd place at Champs! Thank you to all of our swimmers and parent volunteers that have been so dedicated to this community.
This season two of our Penguins broke LPAC records. Caleb G. broke a record from 1997 for Freestyle for 7-8 Boys. Mark Gifford held the Freestyle record for 7-8 Boys at 16.07 for 28 years. Caleb smoked it at 15.97 seconds for freestyle at our Dual meet against Oaktree. If anyone knows Mark Gifford they might want to tell him that he held the record for 28 years, that is a pretty good run. One of our Age Outs, Tomas M., broke his own LPAC record in Breaststroke and he had the most points for the high school age group among all of the teams at Champs. Last year Tomas broke the Breaststroke record at 28.49. This year he was a speed demon and broke it again at 27.91. Congrats Caleb and Tomas!
We are Penguin Strong! Congratulations to all of our Penguins! Everyone worked so hard this year.

SWIMMER PICTURES
If your swimmer took photos and did not receive a 4×6 picture of your swimmer, a team photo and a picture button please email Meghan. If you ordered extra items from the vendor online, these items will be delivered to the address you provided. If your swimmer missed picture day but they would still like a team photo Meghan has extra team photos for you. Please email Meghan and set up a time to get your pictures from her.
DID YOU MISS THE BANQUET?
If you did not attend the Banquet, you can pick up your trophies and ribbons at the Fumagalli’s house. Or if you misplaced your trophy we found three trophies just hanging around the pool. Please text Kelly (408-821-1080) to arrange a time to pick them up. After next week, they’ll go back into the container until next season unless you text Kelly and arrange a pickup date.
YEAR ROUND SWIMMING OPPORTUNITIES
Many families have expressed interest in year-round swimming. We’re lucky to live close to several good teams that offer flexible programs and schedules. See the Year-Round Swimming page on the team website for more information. South Valley Stingrays is closest, and Coach Jerry said LPAC swimmers are welcome to come by the Rancho Santa Teresa pool. Contact the Stingrays info.svstingrays@gmail.com. If you have any questions, you can send email to coaches@swimlpac.org or talk to any of the year-round swim families to discuss which program might work best for you. We encourage you to sign up with a friend or two – it helps with carpooling, and makes it more fun!

SPONSORSHIPS FOR 2026 SEASON
Do you know of a company in or around the neighborhood that may want to be a part of the greatest swim team around? We are looking for companies to Sponsor LPAC.
Our swim team is the best and least expensive team in our cabana league. (We may be a little biased.) Our ability to keep our swimmers until they graduate only proves our point. Next time you are at a swim meet, count the number of older swimmers the opposing team has and compare it to LPAC. Did you see the program at Champs this year? LPAC had twice as many age outs as two of the teams, three times as many as two of the teams and one team had no age outs to speak of. That speaks volumes about LPAC. We are the best, most fun team with the best coaches.
In order to keep our registration costs low and continue all our fun penguin traditions, we need to find companies to Sponsor us.These Tax Deductible Sponsorships helps support our various programs that inspire our youth towards a future of service and community building. Contact Kelly or info@swimlpac.org for more information. Check out the Sponsorship Webpage. If you know of a company in the area that would want to help Sponsor LPAC’s 2026 season please email Kelly.fumagalli@gmail.com.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Be on the lookout for future emails about the Penguin Polar Plunge for New Year’s, LPAC Community Service opportunities and other fun off season events. Registration emails will go out in February, due in March. If you and your family had a great time this year recruit your friend’s to join the team for next year. Thank you all for a wonderful season. See you next year and Go Penguins!
