New LPAC Shortened Season 2021

The LPAC Board is excited to announce we will be holding a shortened, 6-week summer swim season. The Season will begin with morning practices on June 7th, ending by July 18th. Currently meets (possibly 2) will be virtual. Every practice will use current safety protocols, and of course we will include lots of penguin fun. Due to our standard expenses for any length of a season, cost will currently remain the same as last year, pre-pays from last year will be applied.

The current price is still a great deal; if we break down the cost by week, then the cost for your first swimmer is $36.67 a week for association members (total of $220) and $40 per week for non-association members (total of $240). Also as is our custom here at LPAC, all of your swimmers beyond the 1st are about $20.00 less for the entire season. BUT remember, you must pay for the entire 6 week season, it is not a pay as you go system.

Look for the LPAC Registration Packet on April 1st! (Really, we are not kidding.)
