Blog 2032: Tri Squad break

Tri squad members are reminded that their break is now in effect as they trained the first 3 weeks. Please do not attend sessions until the programme starts back fully on September 1st. This break as with every other swimmer is factored into your fees.

Blog 2031: Fee Renewal Letters

We have been making various efforts to distribute the renewal letters for next season at various training sessions and via Squad Representatives.
We do however have a large number that have yet to be reach the recipient.

If you are yet to receive a renewal letter these can be collected from the:

Cafeteria of West Park between 08.00 and 11.30 on Saturday 16th August 2014.

I would be really grateful if you could make every effort to collect your renewal letter at this time, it will save the club money and it is also an opportunity to ask questions about membership related issues.

Note: the above does not apply to our Derventio swimmers whose letters are being distributed via Keith Kelly.

Many thanks,

Kevin

Blog 2030: Erewash Triathlon


The 2014 Erewash Triathlon was held today and LESC hosted the swimmimg section.

I would like to thank those members who gave up their time on a Sunday morning and came along to help, despite the Triathlon being abandoned at 10.30am due to the adverse  weather conditions the swimming section went well for us.

We hope to receive a donation for the club from the council for our efforts so thank you again
