Fall and Winter Registration
The Fall and Winter Registrations are open now.
You can register for Fall only, Winter only, or combined Fall and Winter with a discount on season fees for combined seasons.
Black Dog Bring a Friend
Swimming is more fun with friends. If you know of anyone interested in joining Black Dog, you can benefit too. You will earn a $50 credit on your Active Network Account when your friend has been on the team for an entire season. Bring the “Black Dog Bring a Friend” Card with the new athletes’ name and your name on it to register for the credit. If multiple Black Dog members have convinced a new member to join, you can split up the $50 between multiple friends. The registrant must be a new member of the club, not a returning member.
