WGB is announcing our second Jamboree of the season! Declarations are open, please make sure to declare your swimmer by the 22nd of February; while Job Sign up will open on the 10th of February at noon. 

The WGB Jamboree is a fun, low-pressure introduction to swim meets for our youngest athletes (in the pre-competitive roster group). This event is designed to help swimmers feel confident and excited about racing, with all the essentials of a real meet: a starter, timers, and a supportive environment from start to finish.

Athletes will enjoy a mix of official-style races and playful, non-sanctioned events. There will be 🎁 goody bags & amazing food generously provided by La Cara for athletes to grab and go after the event is concluded:
