Please be advised that our registration process will be changing slightly for the 2010-2011 season.

NOTE: Applications for new members will be accepted, however, should there not be sufficient space we may not be able to accommodate your request this year.

The Aquabelles Board has agreed to and will be implementing a two-step process for the next season. The primary reason for this is to get a commitment in advance for returning swimmers, which will really help in the budgeting process for the upcoming season.

To register:

• Step 1:
  The Aquabelles require a $100 non-refundable deposit from families whose athlete will be registering for the 2010-2011 season received no later than June 6th. Please complete this form and send it along with your deposit cheque to our mailbox at the Talisman Centre. Note that families will only be eligible to work summer bingos if this deposit is received prior to June 6th.
• Step 2:
  A registration event will be held in late August that each family must attend to ensure registration of all swimmers before the beginning of the new season.

For additional details, please read this document about the new process.
