Greetings to all of our current and prospective swim team families!
Have you been enjoying summer? It's been a fun yet chilly one this year!
We are pleased to announce the Garden City Aquatic Club held it's annual Fall Registration on Saturday, August 23rd in the Lawrence Locke Room of the St. Catharines Kiwanis Aquatic Center. We had a great turn out!
All of our registration information for the next year has been posted, as well as our registration form for the fall! You can find this information on the website, in the drop down menu from the "Join GCAC" button!
Please note that our Aqua Club programs (non-competitive) will begin the week of September 8th-one week earlier than previous years. We currently have a wait list for some of our Aqua Club programs; contact us for more information as we always do our best to accommodate our swimmers!
Our competitive swimmers will begin September 2nd; we have limited available space on our competitive swim team!
As we enter into our fourth season with Swim Ontario, it's imperative that we encourage and promote our parents volunteers to move up the ladder! Thanks to Mr. Dennis Reintjes
and Mr. Robert DiPersio for hosting two fantastic clinics!
