THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING 2026 SWIM SEASON!
If you would like to be more involved in the "behind the scenes" of the swim team, please let us know! Our board meetings are open to the public and we love having more parents volunteer to help out! Third Thursdays of every month, 7-8:30pm at the Rec Center, starting in September.
Rosendale Town Board Meeting - Wednesday, October 14th
We would like to have Rapids Team members at the Rosendale Town Board in October, to thank the town for having an amazing resource for our kids and to give them a little info on who we are and how much we love our Rosendale Swim Team! If you are able to come and bring your kids, it would be great to have a presence there, so the town can see what a great community building experience the swim team provides for our families and our town. Be sure to wear your team merch!
Thank you all for an amazing season!!!
Andrea, Laura and the Rapids Board
