Social Events
Post Workout Grub
Of course after practice, swimmers are hungry so we go out to eat after the Friday and Sunday practices.
From September to December, we will meet for dinner at Lieutenant’s Pump on every first Friday of the month and at Score's Pizza on Rideau Street every third Friday of the month. For those who do not attend the practice, aim to arrive at the restaurant for 8pm.
From September to December, we will meet for brunch at Fathers and Sons on every second Sunday of the month. For those not attending practice, aim to arrive at 1pm.
For all the other Fridays and Sundays, people will meet after practice upstairs and decide where they want to go.
