Mohawk Swim


We are doing a swim across Mohawk pond tomorrow.  Leaving at 7:30am from the club.  Or you can meet us at the Boat Launch for the Pond at 8:30am.  Directions can be found at www.campmohawk.org  246 Great Hill Rd., Litchfield, CT 06759 or look below.  Don't go all the way into the Camp, just follow the signs for the boat launch.  
Thanks.
Detailed Directions from Route 202 in Litchfield
From the right at the traffic light on Route 202 onto Milton Road, set your odometer to “0”. Almost immediately you will see Beach Street bearing to the right. DO NOT take Beach Street – bear left and stay on Milton Road. At the sharp corner at 3.0 miles, bear right past Bunnells big red barn. You will be on Maple Street for a very short time before quickly bearing left back onto Milton Road. Be sure to bear left on Milton Road and DO NOT go straight on Maple Street. At 4.4 miles, bear right. At 5.6 miles, bear right onto East Cornwall Road. At 7.5 miles turn right onto Camp Mohawk driveway.

Details:  

We will be swimming from the Mohawk boat launch to the rocks across the pond about 400 yards. We will have three guards on duty swimming with us for a ratio of about 1 guard per 3 swimmers.   

The pond is a very clean pond with clear water.   It should be a great time.  Please feel free to call with questions.  


Thanks. 

Andrew

Championship Entries

Hi,

I have most entries for Championships but if you haven't given Natalie or myself your entries

Last chance entries due to me by 4:00pm Tuesday, Aug 1. Please text me if your child has not told us they will be at championships.

The way championships will work is we will meet Tuesday night and see who needs to swim at trials in the morning.  I will update the blog tonight after meeting.  

Any event that has less than 8 swimmers in it will automatically qualify for finals and doesn't swim that event in the morning. 

Trials in the morning starts at 9:00am.  
Warm up at 8:00am. Finals will depend on trials length but count on an 11:00am start to finals and you won't be late. 

Please bring lawn Chairs, blankets, and plenty of towels and healthy food for the day. It will be a long day so bring lunch!  

RAIN DATE IF NEEDED IS Thursday, August 3rd.

Feel free to call me or text with any questions. 


Thanks.

Again, we will have a parent/swimmer meeting between the two groups at 11:15am.

10am -11:15am will be advanced swimmers and those 10 and over.

11:15am-12pm will be swimmers 9 years and younger based on ability.

***Anyone interested in placing a swimmer in the "learn to swim" lane with Natalie please be prepared to sign up for group lessons as well.  We have had an influx of learn to swim swimmers and until they can learn to swim a full lap on their own we ask they sign up for the group lesson as well.
