WEST News - July 2026

Welcome to July! I hope everyone had a fun and safe Independence Day. Our Club Team is in the final stretch of their season, Rec Team has their first meet today and lessons will be halfway over next week. I can’t believe how quickly the summer is going by, time flies when we are having fun especially in the sun!

Championship Season is Here!

The Club Team will be competing at various Championship Meets over the next few weeks including some exciting travel: PNS Champs in Federal Way, WA; Futures Championship in Sacramento, CA; US Nationals in Irvine, CA; Senior Zones in Clovis, CA! The Summer Rec Team competes at their first meet today at Kamiak High School in Mukilteo and the NCCSL Championships at Snohomish Aquatic Center on Aug 1st. We wish everyone the best of luck and appreciate all the parent’s planning and hard work to support the swimmers in pursuit of their goals!

August - Facility Closed for Maintenance 8/17-8/30; Memberships Rates Adjusted for Closure

As a reminder, we will be closed for our annual maintenance the last two weeks of August and reopen on Monday 8/30. This period allows us to clean and repair areas of the facility that we aren’t able to during our normal operations, plus allows vacation time for our hardworking staff. Membership rates for the month of August will be adjusted ahead of time to account for the reduced access to the facility. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and cooperation.

September - Membership Rates Increase

With significant cost increases this past year and considering we haven’t adjusted membership rates in many years, we must raise Facility Use Membership Rates this upcoming year. We hope everyone can understand our position as we continue to improve operations and provide swimming to our local community at affordable and reasonable rates. We will be instituting a $20 administrative fee for new account registrations and to restart your account after a pause. The new rates effective 9/1/26 will be as follows:

Single: $48

Couple: $75

Household: $105

Senior / Student Single: $43

Senior Couple: $68

Increased Lessons Availability!

We made some changes this year to how we are running lessons and have more available space both for youth and adult lessons! If you’ve been wanting to get in to learn to swim, there is no better time than NOW! See WCA.Captyn.com for availability and registration, rates are automatically prorated if you join during an ongoing session.

NEW: Corporate Sponsorship Packages for 2026-27 Season!

We have three tiers of sponsorship ranging from $600 to $1500 and include different levels of advertising and benefit for corporate sponsors. Click here for more information and sponsorship package details.
