Cannon Pool will be continuing the fun and competition by supporting our very
own competitive swim team. The "Cannon Cudas" (previously known
as the Cannon Cruisers) enters its
third season in 2011. The long ago swim team
name of the "Skeeters" has changed, but the tradition of fun, learning and
team-work lives on! Swimmers from 5 to 17 years of age have competed with
other area pools and have had fun in the process. In 2011, the Cudas
will compete against Heather Downs, MVP, Forest Hills and Northville pools.
Emphasis will be placed on improving stroke techniques and times; conditioning
and having FUN. Practices are held in the mornings and are non-mandatory.
We are excited to begin the season with a new coach, Adam Vera, who will bring energy and
experience to the program. Adam is the girl's varsity swim coach at
Catholic Central and the assistant coach for the boy's varsity team. We will miss John Hams, our leader for the past
two years. We wish him all the best as he embarks on new adventures.
The Cannon Cuda's mission is to promote learning, teamwork and improve
swimming skills in an encouraging and positive environment. We welcome
swimmers of all abilities who are interested in developing their skills as
competitive swimmers. Cannon Pool will host three meets this summer!
Excitement is in the air!

for each additional in a member family. Non member costs are $100 for each
team swimmer and the additional charges can be applied towards a pool
membership. This cost can be included in the payment plan for members.
Compare this to other area swim clubs at $135 per child and you can see why
being a member is a great benefit!
