Synchronized Swim Team Hosts Free TRY-SYNCHRO Events

The Hamden Heronettes Synchronized Swim Team will host two TRY-SYNCHRO events on Monday, 1/6, and Wednesday, 1/8, from 5:45-6:45 PM.  Participants may attend either or both evenings.  There is no charge and no advance registration is necessary.

Who's invited?  Girls aged 6 and older, who can

swim the length of the pool (25 yards) 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 events are held at the Hamden High School pool, 2040 Dixwell Ave., Hamden. The pool entrance is in the rear of the building.  For more information, email info@heronettes.org.
