SPLASH & DASH: This year’s Splash & Dash will be on July 1st. We will be raising money for equipment updates, such as a new starter battery, a new Digital or Analog Pace Clock for practices, Time drops(a new league wide timer system) and kitchen needs a new or slightly loved deep freezer with a lid that actually works.. Please help us to raise money for these causes this year. More information to come. SPONSORSHIPS: 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. Even with the raise in registration this year, 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. In order to keep our registration costs low and continue all our fun penguin traditions, we need to find companies to Sponsor us. If you know of a company in the area that would want to help please email meghanengle@gmail.com. MERCHANDISE IS AVAILABLE UNTIL MAY 1st! We have T-shirts, Parkas, sweats and lots of other goodies to show your Penguin spirit and keep your swimmers and family fashionably warm! Deadline to order is May 1, 2026, with an expected delivery date of May 25, 2026 during practice. Please use the 2026 LPAC Merchandise Order Form to place your order by May 1st!
