Waving Goodbye to July & Diving into August!
Can you believe July is already coming to an end? It has been an incredibly busy month filled with swim lessons, fitness classes, lap swimmers, families enjoying the pools, and countless memories made in the water. Thank you for making the Verona Area Aquatic Center such an active and welcoming place all summer long!
And speaking of memorable moments… we definitely didn't have "unexpected power outage adventure" on our July bingo card! ⚡ Thank you to everyone for your patience, flexibility, and good humor during the recent outage. We appreciate our staff, patrons, and community members who adapted so quickly while we worked through the situation and got everything back up and running safely. Your support reminded us just how amazing the Verona Aquatic community truly is.
As we turn the calendar to August, we're excited for another month packed with programs, special events, and the return of one of our favorite traditions.
Beginning August 11, we are thrilled to welcome the Verona Area High School Girls' Swim Team back to the Aquatic Center for another season. We wish the team the best of luck and look forward to cheering them on throughout the year!
August also brings one of our biggest community events, the 2nd Annual Verona Area Kids Triathlon on Sunday, August 30! We're hoping to welcome 400 young athletes this year as they swim, bike, and run their way to an unforgettable experience.
Because of the event, you will notice some schedule adjustments as we prepare for race day. Please watch our website and social media for updates.
Want to be part of the fun?
- We are still looking for volunteers to help make race day a success.
- Registration is still open, and a few athlete spots remain available!
Whether you're racing, volunteering, cheering from the sidelines, or simply enjoying the excitement, we can't wait to celebrate another amazing community event together.
