Good evening,
you're receiving this email as a current member of the Duncan Swim Team.
In the uncertain times we are living in and the moving target of our health & safety being handled by our Provincial Health Officer, we appreciate your patience on our getting this message out. We have just received the Cowichan Aquatic Centre's plans for Spring Break 2021: DST will have no access to the CAC for the period of Mar 15 - 27 meaning all programs are canceled during this period* and will return to regular programming as of Monday, March 29, 2021.
* A/B/C groups will continue their Road To Recovery gym sessions as scheduled.
Historically, our Team has handled the 2wk break as 1 week off and 1 week on, with this period of irregular training being built into the full annual dues. For the December Winter Break, we were forced to forfeit the same length of time and had carried a 1/4 month's worth of credits for all members of the Dec2020 programming. For the month of March, each applicable Dec2020 member, will have their 25% monthly dues credited amount automatically applied to their invoice. The March Spring Break single week credit will then be carried towards the end of our regular season (end of June) in hopes that our Team will be able to provide appropriate programming to fulfill this unexpected absence in our schedule.
During this unexpected break, we encourage all to take advantage of the CAC water time being offered to the public where our Swimmers can show off their skills and maybe pass along their newfound knowledge to the rest of the family. See far below for details on how to access this.
Thank you for your patience on receiving this message as well as your flexibility in the changes that we all are working through. Your understanding is beyond appreciated.
Leanne.

Good afternoon Stingrays families,
Thank you for your patience in sending this email out. We’re all looking forward to the Winter Break and many of you have been watching the ongoing updating of the DST Winter Break Event Page
In a typical year, over both of the 2 wk breaks (Winter & Spring), our program would shut down for the 1st week of the Break and then do a skeleton schedule for the 2nd week of the Break. The Cowichan Aquatic Centre (CAC) and ourselves have been going on this assumption in lieu of the moving target that we’ve all been enduring. But, as we all know, this is not a typical year…
In the interest of the continued sharing of the water time, the CAC has been working towards an equitable allocation of space for the entire community. This has been especially difficult with having the Wave Pool emptied and only 1 pool to work with for the entire population of the Cowichan Valley. In consideration of this and the CAC’s ongoing commitment to make the Stingrays a priority for the other 44 weeks of the year, the Stingrays will be taking an extended break from the water from Mon Dec 21 – Sun Jan 3* with a return to our regular programming come Mon Jan 4, 2021.
--> *A/B/C Groups will continue their Road To Recovery gym sessions as scheduled
As this was unexpected by all of us, we are working towards solutions that will see everyone receive the 1wk of expected programming but in a different manner. We have not arrived at a solution but wish to assure you that we are working towards fulfillment of the typical programming.
In the meantime, we suggest that all families take advantage of the opportunity to utilize the pool together and book your “family pod swim” at https://www.reccowichan.ca/ - please note that you do need to book this at least 1 day in advance. If you're requiring assistance in doing so, I'm happy to help where I can!
Thank you for your understanding and enjoy the extended down time with your family,
Leanne.
