The dying days of summer are here! Its noticeable how the trees are changing and the colours are deepening ready for Autumn into Winter... over 200 of you grabbed the chance to swim in the lake today (photos of you all enjoying yourself below), many of you appreciated the water temp dropping ready for YOUR winter swim season!
We had lots of you asking how to join us for the WINTER SWIM CLUB... so here is a quick guide of what to expect over the next week or so...
Firstly, you will need to SIGN UP using the WINTER SEASON SIGN UP FORM that will appear on our website home page at www.owswim.uk in a few days time... This makes you a member of the WINTER SWIM CLUB - no form = no membership = no swimmy swim swim!
Second up - You will need to complete our IN HOUSE WINTER SWIM INDUCTION SESSION if you HAVEN'T PREVIOUSLY DONE IT... its a 'one off' thing and if you have completed it in a previous year then you DO NOT need to do it again (unless you want too) and you can simply BUY SWIM SESSIONS via the FIT by WIX app and start booking your swims.
If you HAVE NOT completed OUR IN HOUSE INDUCTION then you must book and pay for an INDUCTION SESSION on one of the advertised dates on the FIT by WIX booking app.
This is a 'non negotiable' as we take our WINTER SWIM SEASON SERIOUSLY and cannot accept other lakes versions or worse than that an online safety input as 'evidence' that you understand the benefits v risk of cold water swimming.
The good news is... its a 'one off' thing and lasts a lifetime meaning you are part of a pretty exclusive club of CHILLI SWIM MEMBERS at AA for life... once you come - you never leave ;-)
WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW - Get ready! Standby for the WINTER SWIM FORM to 'GO LIVE' on our website and GO SIGN UP for WINTER SWIM CLUB... then go BOOK an INDUCTION if you need one! Every one else, go BUY WINTER SWIM CREDITS when they 'GO LIVE' ... we will let you know when!
