We are excited for the season and look forward to seeing all our CATS swimmers. The season will look a bit different due to COVID. Below are a few of the big changes for this summer season.
- We will have 3 VIRTUAL swimmeets. The tentative dates (pending approval from the CMSL Board on May 1st) are as follows: SUNDAY, June 27th, FRIDAY, July 9th, and FRIDAY, July 16th. (NO SATURDAY MEETS) In addition to these meets, Coach Mike is hoping to host an intersquad fun meet.
- During the virtual meets 1 parent will be permitted for swimmers age 8 and under. (Note: The size of the team will determine if parents of other age groups will be permitted to attend the meets.)
- CMSL has canceled Division Championship and Straehle League Championship meets. The Cameron Diamond Invitation meet is also cancelled.
- CMSL policy requires all swimmers to wear a mask within 6 feet of the pool for practice and meets. Additionally, all parent volunteers must wear a mask if within 6 feet of the pool.
- Afternoon Practice will begin the week of June 7th. Morning practice will begin the week of June 21st. The afternoon practice times will be between 4pm-6pm. The morning practice times are between 8am and 10:40am. (8-8:45 am- 9yr-12yr/ 13 and up 8:45-9:40/ 7-8yr 9:40-10:10/ 6 and under 10:10-10:40). At the conclusion of registration we will review the number of swimmers and determine what if any adjustments must be made to meet the COVID restrictions set forth by CMSL of 5 swimmers per lane. The practice schedule is listed on the CATS Teamunify website under "Practice Groups"
- We will not have mandatory volunteer requirements this season. With that said, we will need 8-10 volunteers per meet. If you volunteer you will be guaranteed a spot on the pool deck to watch your swimmer.
If you have any questions please contact the CATS team at croftoncats@gmail.com.
Thanks, Julie & Gena

Benefiting the Charlotte R. Bloomberg Children's Center at Johns Hopkins
Crofton Aquatics is pleased to host an annual novice invitational meet at the Crofton Swim and Tennis Club dedicated in the memory of one of Crofton's own, Cameron Diamond.
About this Event
Formerly known as the Crofton Aquatics Novice Meet, it was renamed in 2010 to honor Cameron Diamond, a young girl and member of CSTC who epitomized courage, perseverance and grace in her battle with leukemia. She inspired Campower -- a strength and spirit that brought our community together. Through the generosity of our swim team families and the greater community over the last 5 years, our event has raised over $40,000 in donations, many boxes of art and craft supplies, as well as hundreds of get well cards for children fighting for better health at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center. In addition, it has brought families and friends together for a wonderful community tradition. Each year's event will continue to raise money put toward donations in Cam's honor. Please see www.camerondiamond.org for more details and a link to make a contribution.
