As another incredible summer begins to wind down, we'd like to take a moment to thank all of our members, volunteers, staff, and families for making the 2026 season one to remember. Whether you spent your days by the pool, on the tennis courts, cheering on our Seahorses, or enjoying time with friends and neighbors, thank you for helping make Hickory Hill such a special place.

🏊 Swim Team & Swim Lessons

🏆 Back-to-Back Champions!

Congratulations to our Hickory Hill Seahorses on winning the Championship Meet for the second consecutive year!🥇💚💛

This accomplishment would not have been possible without the incredible dedication of our coaching staff:

Head Coach: Dennis Choroser

Assistant Coaches: Penny, Aiden, Tommy, Austin, Lucas, Peyton, Josce, Mitchell, Luke, and Lila

Thank you for your countless hours of coaching, encouraging, and inspiring our swimmers all season long!

We'd also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our swim parents, volunteers, timers, officials, concession workers, and everyone who helped at our meets throughout the summer. Your time and dedication are what allow our swim program to thrive each year.

🏊 Swim Lessons

Swim lessons were another tremendous success this summer! We were excited to welcome even more families than in previous years and loved seeing so many young swimmers gain confidence in the water.

Swimmer assessments will be emailed to participating families in the coming weeks. These evaluations will help you register your child for the appropriate lesson level next summer.

🎾 Tennis

Although tennis lessons and team have wrapped up for the season, the courts remain open for member use!

Grab a racket and enjoy the beautiful late-summer weather!

A few friendly reminders:

🎾 Please remember to turn off the court lights if you are the last one to leave.

🗑️ We've noticed an increase in trash being left on the courts. Please help keep our facilities looking their best by cleaning up after yourself and encouraging your children to do the same.

Thank you for helping us keep our courts clean and enjoyable for everyone!

Help Us Keep Our Club Secure

Recently we've experienced several instances of missing gate locks around the club.

If you unlock a gate:

🔒 Please reattach and lock the lock back onto the fence so it doesn't get misplaced.

🔒 If you're responsible for locking up at the end of the day, please double-check that all gates are properly secured.

A few extra seconds can save the club time and money replacing missing locks. Thank you for your help!

Hello Hickory Hill Members,

As many of you know, Hickory Hill will be hosting the Swim Championships tomorrow Monday 8/3/26, and our pool will be dedicated to the event throughout the day.

We are incredibly grateful to Eagle Ridge Swim & Tennis Club for their generosity in opening their pool tomorrow, Monday 8/3/25 for the day to Hickory Hill members who are not participating on the swim team. This thoughtful gesture gives our families an opportunity to enjoy a day at the pool while our facility is being used for the championships.

We sincerely appreciate Eagle Ridge's hospitality and community spirit.

We also wish the best of luck to all of our Seahorse swimmers competing in the championships!

🛝 Playground Improvement Initiative

Hello Hickory Hill Members,

As a reminder as part of our ongoing efforts to improve the club, we are beginning to explore options for upgrading our children's playground. Our goal is to provide a safe, durable, quality playground that can be enjoyed by the many families who visit Hickory Hill each season.

Before moving too far into the process, we'd love to tap into the knowledge and expertise within our membership. We have received some leads from members but have not received a response at this time. So we are looking for some more leads

Do you know someone in the playground industry? Whether you work in playground design, manufacturing, installation, recreation, landscaping, or have a connection to someone who does, we would greatly appreciate your recommendations. Supplier contacts, professional advice, and industry insights would all be extremely valuable as we evaluate our options.

In addition to exploring the purchase of a new playground, we are also considering whether our existing playground could be professionally refurbished or renovated. If you know of a company or individual with experience restoring or updating commercial playground equipment, we'd love to hear those recommendations as well.

We have had a couple members join already to form a small committee but more are welcome to join. Being part of the committee would involve:

Research playground and refurbishment options
Gather pricing and information
Explore fundraising opportunities
Make recommendations to the Board of Directors
If you have expertise, industry connections, or would simply like to be part of this initiative, please email Dan Twentyfive at [email protected].

Thank you for helping us make Hickory Hill an even better place for our families. We appreciate your support and look forward to hearing from you!

Best Regards,

Erik Jensen HH VP of Communications
