I would like to know about dates, start and end dates as well a cost and location of where the swim is held – what pool. Is there a phone number i can call to get info.

Hi,
I’d like to start training in January 2016 for the Masters games being held in August 2016 in Vancouver. Since your Early Bird and Evening classes are full, can you recommend another option for coaching or group classes in Calgary? I currently have an annual membership at Talisman Centre.
Thanks very much,
Diane
