Welcome to our Pre-Opening Newsletter 


Glenmore Pool opens this weekend!  Are you ready?  A little sun, a few friends, and a relaxing afternoon next to the pool.  What could be better than that?  Only one thing, and that is finishing the weekend with a BBQ on the Glenmore Pit!  Bring all your friends and help us kick off another great summer of swimming, games, races, bbqs and a lot of fun.  We are looking forward to greeting our returning members, and welcoming our new members. The gate opens at noon on Saturday, see you all there!
 
What's new at the pool this year? 
  • Surely you have all received our new Glenmore Postcard in your mailbox.  We redesigned our 'flyer' so that we could better represent ourselves to the community.  We would like to invite all of our friends and neighbors to take part in the fun we have at Glenmore.
  • We have installed new changing rooms.  We heard you when you asked, and so there are now more places to change in both the Ladies and Mens bathrooms.
  • We have improved the grounds by installing a beautiful new patio stone pathway that leads to the Snack Shack and the Office.
  • Once you get to the Snack Shack, you will see that we have also enhanced our menu!  This year we will offer some healthier options, like chicken souvlaki, and salad.  Of course we will still have all of your old favorites too.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
Denise Muinonen - President Glenmore Pool

Our Competitive Teams 

Participation on one of Glenmore’s competitive teams is included and encouraged with your membership. Glenmore has competitive teams in four sports that compete against other pools of the North Shore Aquatics Association (N.A.A.)

Swim Team

At Glenmore we encourage participation and emphasize fun! Everyone who wants to join our swim team will be able to practice and compete regardless of experience. The swim team practices each weekday from 12:30-1:00 Guppies (6 and under), 12:30-1:15 Junior (8-10 year olds) and 1:15-2:00 Senior (11-over 16!). Swim meets are Wednesday evenings at Glenmore or other N.A.A. pools. Come join the fun and get cheered on by your team! Practices start June27th!

Water Polo

Glenmore’s water polo teams consist of boys and girls in both the 14 and under and the 16 and under categories. Teams practice Monday and Wednesday mornings from 8:00-9:30. Practices teach basic water polo skills and include strength and endurance drills and exercises. Games are played on Monday evenings at Glenmore or the opposing team’s pool. Eligible players can participate in a 12 and under tournament and a 14 and under tournament held at N.A.A. pools. Glenmore has an annual waterpoloathon. Practices start June 27th, come give water polo a try!

Synchronized Swimming (Synchro)

Syncro is like dancing in the water. Swimmers combine grace, flexibility, strength and an ability to hold their breath under water. Swimmers are placed on teams based on their age and ability either pre-junior, Junior or senior.   There are also duets and solos in the junior and senior categories.  The pre-juniors have a competition in August. The junior and senior categories have a preliminary and a final competition. Glenmore is pleased to be hosting the Junior Synchro Finals this year! Team tryouts are on June 18th! Practices are Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 8:00-9:30 and Sunday from 10:30-12:00. Come and learn how to dance in the water!

Diving Team

It has been said that diving is as close to flying as many of us will get. Glenmore has divers in four categories pre-junior, junior, intermediate and senior, based on age and ability. The diving team practices on Monday and Tuesday evenings from 5:30-6:30 and competitions are Thursday evenings at Glenmore or other N.A.A. pools. If you are unable attend practices during the day this is the team for you! Practices start June 27th! Come learn how to fly!
