Masters Swim

The Fall session of our Masters Swim program will run from September 5th through December 30th and we will be offering two separate practice groups!

Please read all descriptions of the practices and policies before selecting your practice(s)

Swimmers participating must be registered with US Masters Swimming. Registration can be completed here. One day guests must take out the free USMS trial membership BEFORE attending the practice or be a current USMS member. Shepherd's Run now has its own USMS workout group designation, which is SRMS.

What to bring:

A few procedural notes on swim protocols:

• Three poolside private shower rooms for swimmer use are available. Use of the spa shower/locker rooms is not permitted.
• Bathroom/changing area is provided via the four private bathrooms located on the main floor above the wellness center.
• Swims will occur in any weather except thunder/lightening. Make up dates for cancelled workouts are not made up on later dates.
• Swimmers may be asked to swim up or down a level based on attendance at each practice as to not overcrowd the lanes/equalize them.
• Drop-in rates will be available on an extremely limited basis for single swim participation $18/non-members and $9/members.
• If you have not previously signed a swim waiver you will be asked to do so on your first swim day at the Wellness desk.
• Swimmers will be notified by coach/staff, if this is not a fit for the them or the group and will be refunded their fee, if their swimming abilities are not suitable (too slow/too fast) for the workouts provided due to limited space in the lanes and in the pool.
