Volunteer Hours:
As a reminder, each LVSC family is responsible for 10 volunteer hours every 6 months. 10 hours must be completed during the January - June time period and then again from July until December. Any hours that are not completed will be charged at a $25 per hour rate at the end of the six months. **If any family is interested in paying a discounted rate of $200 at the beginning of any six- month period, you will receive credit for all 10 hours and will not have to complete any physical hours during that time period. Please email [email protected] for more information or to set up your payment.
Non- Swimming Achievements and Accomplishments:
LVSC’s goal is to create healthy, well- rounded, creative, and positive swimmers who excel not only in the water but in the community as well. In each newsletter, we hope to highlight swimmers who have been recognized for their achievements outside of the pool. If your swimmer has an accomplishment you would like highlighted, please email [email protected].
Examples: academic honor roll, scholarships, citizen or community involvement awards, other athletic or sport awards/ medals/ recognitions.
