ATTENTION ALL CHELTENHAM AQUATIC CLUB FAMILIES!!!!!!
The district is drastically raising the price of Cheltenham Aquatic Club for the use of the high school pool facilities by 700%! In addition, CHEL would only be able to use the pool 3 nights a week instead of 5, and they would only be guaranteed 3 months at a time.
Please CHEL families we need your help to try to stop this from happening! Please write a letter to the school board ([email protected]) AND PLEASE come to the school board meeting tonight at 7pm to help stop this from happening!
We have been a part of this community for over 50 years!
