Hello Cyclones!

As manager of the River Oak Rapids team, I wanted to say hello and invite you to join us for the 2025 swim season. Our family has been with River Oak for four years now, but I grew up in summer swim in SC, and it is a youth rec program that is near and dear to my heart. We are a friendly, encouraging group that is always looking to make new friends! Our team consists of a good balance of seasoned summer swim and year-round families, as well as families newer to swim team. We love to watch our swimmers progress in technique and endurance, while building confidence and trying new things. I know transitions can be hard, but we’d love for you to be a part of another great summer season with us!

• Keep an eye on our website for upcoming announcements, dates, and to register: https://riveroakrapids.swimtopia.com.
• We will be hosting a Team Meet & Greet on Saturday, April 19th from 10:00am-12:00pm. Come say hello, get fitted for a team suit (team suits are optional), pick up some discounted team swag and ask all the questions. We’d love to meet you!
• We would like to officially restart the “little” swimmers program this season. This program will meet in the shallow end during regular practice, with the hopes that swimmers will eventually move up into the regular practice lanes by the end of the season. If you have a new/beginner swimmer that you would be interested in enrolling, please email me ([email protected]) to add your name to the list. Once we know we have enough littles to cover the costs of staff, we will open registration to those swimmers.

Please reach out with any questions you may have (and if you would be interested in serving on our Team Council) – [email protected] or (864) 275-8427.
