The bulkhead instalation was completed today! We're back to our normal schedule tomorrow morning. One change though, we'll be swimming on the shallow end for the time being. If you have any questions about this or the bulkhead let me know. - Naima Pai
Hi Team, I hope those of you who took the opportunity to talk to Dave, our new Executive Director, had a good conversation! The answer to the question that has been on everyone's mind: The bulkhead is being installed next week!!! Practices will proceed as regularly scheduled Monday, Thursday, and Friday. All practices are canceled Tuesday and Wednesday. Cherish your final days with the medium course lane! When we return on Thursday we will be back to 25 yards for everyone :) Happy Halloween! Stay spooky, Naima Pai
Due to multiple staff falling ill all morning programming is canceled tomorrow (10/30/25) morning. This includes lap swim unfortunately so there is no alternative at Juanita. Redmond will remain open for lap swim so if you are able to get over there that's an alternative. We will reopen Juanita at 11:45 for programming including our noontime practice. The team meeting with Dave, our new Executive Director, is TBD and an update will be shared as soon as possible. Again, if anyone knows anyone who would be interested or willing to...
Hi everyone, I’m sorry to be doing this again but I’m canceling the 11:45 practice due to a medical issue. Molly will be there for the 7:45 practice, so I hope some of you can accommodate this change of schedule. -Naima Pai
Molly and Mikayla will be covering all practices tomorrow as I am still out. Sorry for the inconvenience, but please let them know you appreciate them!
Due to the staff shortage along with my accident and planned absence, we will be unable to hold practices in the morning tomorrow (Thursday) and Friday. There will still be practice at 11:45 both days. I'm so sorry for this inconvenience, but I hope the noon time will work for some of you. Also, I'm sorry to send two emails back to back. The previous email was intended to go out a couple of days ago but did not process correctly and only went to the website. -Naima Pai
Hi Team, Due to a staff shortage, we will only have one guard (assisted by me) for our weekday practices going forward until Wave Aquatics can fill the gaps with new lifeguards. This means there may be times when I need to be guarding rather than directly coaching during our practices. This decision was not made lightly as it will mean Sarah, the Assistant Director/our lovely morning guard, and I will be guarding non-stop for longer periods of time than is typical. However, we understand the importance of consistancy for...

I will not be at practice again today as I'm still responding to my family's emergency. Thank you for being flexible in this difficult time.
