As the snow continues to fall in the Killington and Pico mountains, the Killington Aquatic Club swimmers continue to train at the Pico Sports Center.

The swim season is winding down for the KAC Competitive Team with one last Silvers Championship meet to go on March 15-17. KAC Senior Competitive swimmers Heidi Alf, Julia Michel, Justine Peters and Sophia Nisimblat will represent the club and the Killington area at the Upper Valley Aquatic Center in White River Junction. Competing in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly, all four of these young ladies have worked hard since mid-October to qualify for the opportunity  to swim in a USA Swimming Championship meet.
