Calling all swimmers!! Our season is about to begin.

The Canon City Piranha Swim Team is still swimming even in the wake of the closure of the R.C. Icabone Swimming Pool.

The Canon City Swim Team is inviting indivudals who LOVE to swim.  If you are between the ages of 6 and 18, live in Fremont County or the surrounding areas, and LOVE being in the water, come join the team.

Team practice begins the last week of May at the Florence pool and continues through the first week of August.  Swim meets are held on weekends throughout the summer season.  Meet locations include: Salida, Pueblo West, Las Animas, Rocky Ford, Alamosa, Pueblo, La Junta and Lamar.  Attending meets is not a requirement by the team, but they are a lot of fun to participate in.
