PVS Reserve: Club Support for the 2024-2025 Season

At the August 2024 Board of Directors meeting, the PVS Board approved the following provision of support to PVS clubs in the 2025 season as a goodwill gesture and means of appreciation:

  • Member Clubs' USA Swimming annual registration fee for the 2024-2025 season, shall be subsidized 100% by PVS with no fees retained by the LSC. Each PVS club will be provided a $70 credit to their club account on 1-Jan-2025 as long as they are in good standing with PVS and USA Swimming and have no outstanding bills. If this credit has not been used by 31-Mar-2025, PVS will issue a check to those clubs for the remaining balance.
  • PVS clubs in good standing will receive a $500 credit from PVS for the 2024-2025 season. Each club will be provided a $500 credit to their club account on 1-Oct-2024 as long as they are in good standing with PVS and USA Swimming and have no outstanding bills. If this credit has not been used by 31-Mar-2025, PVS will issue a check to those clubs for the remaining balance.

Eligibility criteria:

  • Must have been registered as a PVS club for the prior season (1-Sep-2023 through 31-Aug-2024)

Pictures Wanted


I am always on the lookout for more pictures to use on the PVS home page. If you took pictures at any meets and are willing to share them with PVS, please send them to me. They need to be pictures that can be cropped to the 5:2 format. I am interested in pictures of swimmers, coaches, officials and other volunteers that make up PVS. I retain sole discretion on which pictures to use on the website -- Webmaster
