New Practice Times and Other Important News for LPAC!

Week #2 Starts Today!

Week In Review

Practice began with great participation from the Juniors and Seniors at 6:30 AM this first week. We are so very excited so many of the Penguins are returning to improve their stroke and enter into the fun. We have a large group of beginning penguins who will add to the breadth of our team. We know they will be swimming like fish in the near future!
