John Bruce Memorial Updates

Warm-up Times - please arrive 10 minutes prior to your assigned warm-up time:

**all warm-up lanes have 20 swimmers assigned which is VERY crowded. We have asked the Columbus Sports Club if we can warm-up there from 7:45-8:30 am so that our 11 & overs can warm-up in a calm & conducive environment. If they are able to open the pool for us, we will announce this at practice all week.
