With such a big & vibrant community a question always raised was "Why doesn't Penderbrook have a swim team?"  It was interesting to find out that about 14 years ago some families did attempt to form a swim team, but unfortunately it did not last as there was not enough commitment to sustain it.  

With this in mind, in 2022 we began the journey to approach our PCA in discussions to show the community's renewed interest and viability to provide this wonderful opportunity for our neighborhood.  We were granted permission to have a start-up swim session at the Penderbrook pool in the Summer of 2023.  This effort resulted in having a total of 25 swimmers and an opportunity to develop a strong network among families living in the community (not to mention having tons of fun!)

   We were excited to report in 2024 that we were accepted to join Colonial Swim League in Summer 2024.  This was a big step that helped strengthen our commitment and build upon the foundation that was started the previous year. Our number of swimmers has increased and the program has strengthened. With continued support from all participants, we hope to continue this journey and be able to provide the opportunity for families to join Penderbrook Swim Team for generations to come!

All committee board members are parents who are volunteering their time to help provide a wonderful opportunity for kids and families to come together to encourage the growth and success of our swim team!! To join our team, please reach out to penderbrookswim@gmail.com.
