The competitive season runs from the first week of June to the end of July.

Communication

Skyline Swim Team uses email as our main method of communication. Our preferred method of communication is pool side with a cold beverage in hand. As a summer pool, we try to stay true to our old-school vibe, and have as many IRL (in real life) conversations as we can vs emails. But if all else fails, email us at aquatics@skylineacres.com.

Sign up for Rained OUT to receive text alerts when practices or meets are cancelled due to weather.

We invite you to become a part of this year’s team and enjoy some fun in the sun! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at aquatics@skylineacres.org.

GO Skyline!
