“New program additions last year greatly enhanced wellness, fitness and competitive levels for our participants. We have, once again, added more programs this year."

Weekly skills and drills sessions were a great opportunity to have one of our 40 coaches enhance the technique of many swimmers. We have added a Tuesday evening session.

Two hour swim practices in the morning were perfect for many of our distance swimmers and Ironmen. We have added two evening long distance sessions.

Bern Chartrand has developed into a great running coach and the participants are running farther faster easier and injury free. Running continues again for next year.

New this year is weekly DVD swim technique stroke analysis conducted by Coach Duane Jones. Membership asked for it and we are proud to provide it with the new equipment acquired.

Andy Shelp has no equal in his enthusiasm. With his multiple Ironman competitive experience seamlessly guides his participants, often showing no mercy in our spinning program. Spinning continues in a new venue.

Coach Duane Jones, Doctorate in Exercise and Wellness brings 40 years of coaching elite and beginner athletes, some to World Championship and Olympic Games. But, a special passion of mine has been to work with the adult participant in weight loss, anti aging and health management. In fact, happily, the greatest area of growth over the past year has been the group health and wellness seminars, swimming camps around the country and internet coaching to athletes worldwide.
