Next Swim: Sunday May 28th - Noon / Memorial Day - Noon
Once upon a time ago Memorial Day weekend would mark the official start to the Klode Kru swim season. Complete with an official proclamation by none other than THE Patriarch himself. If you dared to swim during the forbidden swim season (i.e. the period of time between The Patriarch's official end-o-season proclamation and the start-o-season proclamation) you risked having to endure a heinous new nick name like Dewdrip, Hook or Diablo during the forbidden swim season. If you follow the list of regular Kru mates in this blog you'll likely notice that some of these names actually stuck!
That was then. Now, some of our dedicated Kru mates swim all year round. An impressive feat for sure! But in one of his more famous sermons The Patriarch proclaimed "That which does not have an end shall not have a beginning!" and that was that. No more would we enjoy an official proclamation for the official start of the Klode Kru swim season. Instead you've got this blog entry about what was then...before it became now....
