After a one-year covid-19 absence, Bluffton Sardines swim team is back.
The team competes in the Western Ohio Aquatics League (WOAL). In 2019, the most recent swim season, Bluffton finished second of eight teams in the league meet, closely behind Westside.
This year several members of the team competed Putnam County YMCA swim team and with Lima YMCA swim team. Several of those swimmers qualified for the Great Lake Zones championships in March at BGSU.
The team serves swimmers ages 5 to 18 in the summer. A parent meeting takes place at 6 p.m., Wednesday, May 19, at the pool.
Online registration for returning members starts May 1 and for new families on May 12.
The final practice schedule will be posted on the website once it is finalized.
