Brooklyn Masters Swimming

For those of you who don’t enjoy reading a post with lots of sections crossed out, here are the details on the new workouts. Workouts will be on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 7:00 am - 8:30 am, with exceptions for when LIU is closed.  Prices for the workouts are as follows:

To obtain access to the LIU pool your name must be on the list at the security desk.  If you are not a member and would like to attend one of our workouts, please email info@brooklynswim.org to have your name added to the list.

We have a pool!  The deal with LIU is done, and we will be starting workouts there (corner of Flatbush and DeKalb) on Tuesday, November 18.  Workouts will be held on Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday and Friday mornings from 7:00 am - 8:30 am.  Because of holidays, the schedule for the rest of the year is as follows:

Workouts will cost $15/day, or you can purchase a splash card for 6 workouts at $80, or 12 workouts at $160 ($13.33/workout).  For the remainder of the year, you can also sign up for unlimited workouts at $75/month.  Starting in January, monthly fees will go up to $125 $114 for unlimited workouts with Brooklyn Masters or $138 $134 for unlimited workouts with Brooklyn Masters and TNYA.

If you’d like to join us, please email info@brooklynswim.org for more information.

UPDATE [11/10/08]: We’ve lowered the prices to $114 for 3 workouts per week, and $134 for unlimited workouts.  This is in line with TNYA’s pricing, and was something we were hoping to able to do once the club got off the ground, but thanks to strong enough demand we’re able to drop the prices now.

UPDATE 2 [11/12/08]: The workout schedule has been changed.

After two years at the Dodge YMCA, the Dodge Brooklyn Masters Team is moving on.  We are working on a deal with Long Island University to use their pool three mornings a week — most likely Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 7:00 - 8:30 am — and we hope to have that finalized soon.  Before we can do that, however, we need to make sure the team will have enough members to be able to survive. So if you’re interested in working out with us at LIU, please email us at info@brooklynswim.org.

Workouts fees have not been finalized yet, but we anticipate they will be between $10 and $15 per workout, with discounts for those who pay for multiple workouts in advance.  You do not need to commit to anything, or send any money yet, but we need to know your level of interest as soon as possible in order to get this team started.
