[quote=Anonymous]My three kids have been on swim team at two different pools in NOVA, and we've had a great experience and found the swimmers one of the nicest groups around. Yes, swim team has it's own culture, but its not anymore peculiar than any other sports. My kids always liked it because it was mixed girls and boys and older and younger kids, something you don't get on your basic U-12 soccer team. Everyone dressed up for the end of season party, but it was more the 13 and up year old girls who were into make-up and the tiny dresses, which given that they were teens seemed appropriate. Maybe OP's MOCO team was over the top, but see no reason to paint all swim teams with same brush. And no one sport has a monopoly on recreational drug use. I've seen drug/alcohol use/abuse in all sports high school and college -- seems to vary by the kids and school though. [/quote]
