BTC sessions over Xmas and New Year

 All of our sessions will take a break between Xmas and New Year with the exception of the Bolton One Senior Swim which will go ahead on Thu 29th Dec but at an earlier time 7 to 8pm. The last Bolton One swim before Xmas will be on Thu 22nd Dec but also at the earlier time 7 to 8pm. The first Bolton One session after New Year will be on Thu 5th Jan and normal time slot will resume from then on 7.30 to 8.30pm


So Bolton One sessions will be held as follows
Thu 22nd Dec 7 to 8pm
Thu 29th Dec 7 to 8pm
Thu 5th Jan 7.30 to 8.30pm

For all the other sessions the last one before Xmas and the first one in New Year are listed below. 
Smithills Junior Swim Thursdays. Last one tonight 15th Dec. First one back Thu 12th Jan
Farnworth Junior and Senior Swim sessions Saturdays. Last one Sat 17th Dec. First one back Sat 7th Jan
Turton Senior Swim Sessions Tuesdays. Last one Tue 20th Dec. First one back Tue 3rd Jan
Horwich Early morning senior swim session Fridays. Last one Fri 16th Dec. First one back 6th Jan
Leverhulme Park sessions Mondays. Last one 19th Dec. First one back 9th Jan

Due to poor attendance and pressures on the club finances the committee have yet to decide whether to continue the Horwich Sat Senior Swim session in the New Year. The options are to hire only 3 lanes if the pool agree to that and they haven't yet decided  or to cancel it all together. Will let everyone know soon as a decision has been made

Have a good Xmas everyone
