​​​​​​​Long Course Season: 

Short Course (SC) season has wrapped and we are now in the thick of Long Course (LC)!

SC is when athletes compete in 25m pools while LC involves competing in 50m pools (when available).
 
In preparation we need to shift our eyes to the LC standards listed, and away from the SC standards on Regional, Divisional and Provincial Qualification lists. 

Please note: If you/ your swimmer has not aged up since achieving a short course standard this year then they automatically qualify for the long couse standards via conversion. So, they "make" it to Regionals, Divs, Provs automatically -- unless they are now in a new age bracket. 



Fundraise Year-Round: 


Bring your refundable beverage containers to the depot in a bag use transparent (clear or blue) bags only, 90L max, no drawstrings.

The containers do not need to be sorted - Yay!
However, it is best to ensure that all of your containers are refundable. 

Most cans, bottles and milk jugs are but cream containers are not.

Print the label at the depot using the Wind's phone number: 604- 413- 1597.

Then attach the label to the bag and leave it at the depot! The refund will be transferred directly to the Wind's account.

(Note the only 6 labels can be printed per day per account.)
