LAKEPORT – Lake County Channel Cats is now opening its swim-lesson and swim team signups to the general public.
Returning swimmers who have not signed up should do so immediately as their places on the team can no longer be guaranteed if they did not make it to sign-ups this past week.
Swim lessons begin June 1 at Westshore Pool at Clearlake High School in Lakeport and are open to swimmers of all ages and abilities.
A few scholarships remain available.
The Channel Cats swim team, which competes regionally and also offers noncompetitive swimming opportunities year-round, was founded more than 30 years ago.
More than 100 children learn to swim through the Channel Cats’ junior program every summer. Paid professional coaches and certified swim teachers work with children from age 3 up.
Channel Cats swimmers have gone on to receive full-ride college tuition scholarships at universities throughout the country.
Channel Cats also offers poolside promotion opportunities to local businesses wishing to make donations.
For more information about Channel Cats’ nonprofit donation opportunities or to sign up for swim lessons or to join the team, call Jen Hanson at 707-263-3131.
