Our Thanksgiving Workout is one of our favorite team traditions. It is really fun to see how dedicated our swimmers are to persevere through this challenging three hour workout.

This year we had an awesome turnout of over 30 swimmers! Thank you so much to our sponsors Dolfin Swimwear and Synergy for providing prizes and goodies. All of our participants received a goodie bag and dome racing cap from Dolfin. Many of our swimmers won some prizes from Synergy and USMS.

During these difficult times of the pandemic we want you to know that Greenville Splash is your extended family. Please reach out to your teammates and coaches if you need anything. We care about you!

Keep sending us pictures. Feel free to email Coach Leslie at greenvillesplash@gmail.com or give me a call if you need any help with anything: 864-283-1328.

We have really cool new team swag this year! Coach Leslie has been passing out swag at our different workouts. If you did not get yours, let Leslie know and we can mail it out.

This group was the very beginning of Greenville Splash: Leslie Scott, Janice Hebel, Maureen White and Mark Kothe! Back in 2005-2007 we swam in the summer months at the Wellington Green Pool at 5:30 am. Maureen would open it up and we would do full workouts with no lights, lane ropes or pace clocks! We do have plenty of bug stories and how we would swim through October with no heat!

Thank you so much to all of our swimmers that volunteer for Greenville Splash! Your efforts help to make our community safer in the water and provide fitness and competition activities for swimmers. We host three big events every year: The South Carolina LCM State Championships, The Upstate Splash Charity Open Water Swim, and Adult Learn to Swim. We have taught over 250 adults how to swim! The Upstate Splash has raised money to provide swim lessons for over 3,000 children! We are proud to be a team that gives back to our community!
