Mary, Will you please forward this to the Whitecaps families? Thanks! Dear Whitecaps Families, It was an awesome season for the Whitecaps! I enjoyed watching your swimmers improve this summer. I encourage you to consider signing up your swimmers for the Gators. The Gators are a year-around swim program for kids ages 5-18. Our team is a satellite of the East Carolina Aquatics, formerly the Greenville Swim Club. The Washington site has proven to be a successful and valuable asset for ECA. We produce some of the best age group swimmers in the State right here in Washington. Over the course of this year, your swimmer will receive quality instruction from experienced coaches. They will improve on technique, strength, and endurance, while learning the value of hard work, discipline, dedication, and commitment. And we have a little fun along the way! Swimmers are placed in groups based on ability and age. There is a $100 fee to join and monthly fees range from $60 to $125 per month based on practice groups. Families that join receive a membership to the Moore Aquatic and Fitness Center. A fee of $50 must be paid to the Aquatic Center to process your pool membership application. Tryouts will be held Tuesday, August 27 and Wednesday, August 28 from 5:00-7:00 PM. New swimmers will start Monday, September 2. Please pre-register online at our website, gscgators.org, (which will soon be swimeca.org) and bring a copy of their birth certificate to try-outs. Tentative Practice Schedule - Bronze- Mon-Thurs 3:30-4:15 PM Silver- Mon-Thurs 5:00-6:00 PM Gold- Mon-Fri 3:30-5:00 PM Senior- Mon-Fri 4:00-6:00 PM Group Descriptions Bronze- This group is our beginner level.

Silver- This is our second level. Like Bronze group the practices are mostly instructional, with a little more emphasis on strength conditioning. Gold- This is our advanced Age Group Level. Swimmers in this group are building the tools to be successful in State level competition. Practices are challenging with continued attention to detail and technique. Senior- Advanced and Novice swimmers 13 & Up. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Scott Pake Associate Head Coach East Carolina Aquatics 252-945-8400
