No Schedule
Update!! Oct 1st 2020
Hi Gang, we have run into a bit of a snag with High
School pools and college pools which aren't open yet.
City owned and private clubs are mostly open with restrictions. Next week I will be providing emails of people that need to hear from us as a group to hopefully make them understand that this is doing us more harm than good at this point. Stay tuned in. Please continue to open water and rent single lanes where you can!
Waiting to hear back from School Districts and College
hopefully soon!!
Bit of a breakthrough today Oregon Health Authority
approved 1.5 phase for pools today so hopefully it will
be only a couple of weeks before teams can get back in
with restrictions!! This was done by a few swim coaches
pestering the Governors office for 2 months straight!!
Stay tuned!!!
Meanwhile keep up the Open Water swimming if you can if no algae also
you can rent a lane at Chahalem pool and possibly LaCamas
and Hood River if you are out that way stay tuned in stay
healthy and stay safe:)
My Guess with Multnomah County not up to speed yet. We will be able to get back to Mt Hood around the middle of Sept we should the whole pool on weekends and half on the weekdays and nights. Most likely how it will work is we have two swimmers per lane short course. I will add workouts on weekdays from 11:45am to everyday if I can and one more night practice to alleviate crowding.
When we start back only ORM paying members will be allowed to swim for the first month - no drop ins so we don't max out swimmers - 40 on weekends and 20 on weekdays.
We will do texts to me to solidify your spot for practice.
Once we get going I think it will loosen up pretty fast.
Hang in there Gang it's almost over!
