Hi Dolphins - just a note to let everyone know that we have new coach in our program. Natasha Hai is a former Summerside Dolphin Swim Team member who has competed for PEI in two Canada Games and also qualified for Canadian Youth Champs.

She will be working with the T4 and Regional groups ( with me) on Wednesdays and assisting Jenn with the T1b's on Thursdays - please do not hesitate to say Hi to Hai and welcome her to our family.
