Hi Amherst swim families:

Coach Mary Bartek has resigned her position as head swim coach for Amherst Summer Swim Team.  The coach’s decision is respected as it was a difficult one to come to.  She loved coaching the summer swim team.  However, she wants to spend more time with her family.  Her coaching effort was greatly appreciated and she will be missed.  

If anyone is interested in coaching or knows someone who is interested in coaching the Amherst Summer Swim Teams for 2021 please email the ASST board.

We will be in good hands as the ASST board begins a search for a replacement.  The ASST board will be opening up Early Bird sign up for the 2021 season.  Details to follow soon.
