The Haines Dolphins Swim Team would like to thank the many volunteers and organizations that have contributed to the success of our team. In January, an army of volunteer timers, officials and parents made the Haines swim meet a big success. Swimmers from Whitehorse, Y.T., and Juneau and their families packed the pool. In February, Haines Borough facilities staff remodeled the locker rooms, repairing the showers and stemming a leak that was affecting the school’s weight room. Substantial grant support from the Chilkat Valley Community Foundation and the Haines Borough helps the team provide after-school exercise and expert coaching five days per week to 35 swimmers during our nine-month season. In addition, many businesses and individuals support the team as gold, silver and bronze level sponsors. Thank you for your investment in our town’s young people. You are helping these swimmers build character, skill and fitness in a lifelong sport.
