PDF As the Hamden North Haven YMCA Swim Team has officially ended our Regular Season for 2008/2009 Short Course, I would like to look back on this year’s happenings. However, before that I would just like to thank all of the swim team parents, swimmers, and everybody else that has been involved with this past season! Without your support, involvement, and commitment the we wouldn’t have been able to accomplish a majority of these achievements this year! So, thank you, and I truly hope to see you at the Hamden North Haven YMCA Swim Team banquet on April 5th, and April 27th for the Spring Swim Clinic!
And now on to the Hamden North Haven YMCA Typhoon Happenings of the 2008/2009 Short Course Season in no particular order (and please feel free to let me know if I have forgotten something):
