The Hamden Heronettes
Synchronized Swim Team is offering two free, no obligation sessions for
interested swimmers. The dates are Monday, September 16, and
Wednesday, September 18, both from 5:45-6:45 PM at the Hamden High School pool,
2040 Dixwell Ave, Hamden. The pool entrance is in the rear of the
building. No advanced registration is necessary.
These TRY-IT! Sessions are
designed for female swimmers, aged 7 and up, who can swim the width of the pool and
are comfortable putting their face in the water. Participants should wear
a bathing suit, bring a towel, and get ready to learn about egg beaters, ballet
legs, and barracudas—all synchronized swimming skills.
The Hamden Heronettes (www.Heronettes.org) are an elite
competitive team, founded in 1970. Synchronized swimming, an Olympic
event since 1984, requires grace, strength, flexibility, stamina, drama,
musicality, and endurance. Come and see why and TRY-IT!
