Because the Flambeau Area Swim Team is not school or government funded, the swim club must charge fees to help cover the swim team’s operating expenses. The largest portion of our operating expenses goes toward coaches’ salaries. Other expenses incurred by our swim club include swim conference fees, insurance, office supplies, postage and awards for the swimmers. These fees are based on the squad the swimmer is placed in and corresponds to the number of coaching hours he/she receives.

We do not want to exclude any swimmer because of financial circumstances. Those who feel they may have difficulty meeting the fee schedule are asked to speak to a board member to make special arrangements. (All information submitted will remain strictly confidential.)

It is the coaches’ sole decision to advance swimmers from the different squad levels. When a swimmer is moved from one squad to another, he/she must pay an adjusted fee for the higher squad in which the swimmer participates in for the remainder of the season. In the event a swimmer is advanced to the next squad, the new squad fees will begin during the next full month. The Treasurer will indicate the change and any amount due will be emailed to the swimmer’s family.
