Cedar Rapids Aquatics Association



Welcome to the CRAA Website!
The Cedar Rapids Aquatics Association is a non-profit
organization offering year-round competitive swimming for boys
and girls of all ages. Affiliated with both Iowa Swimming Inc. and
USA Swimming, CRAA trains its swimmers according to age,
gender and ability and encourages them to compete in swim
meets throughout the year.  CRAA members can qualify to swim
in the Iowa Junior Olympics, the USA Zone Championships, and
the USA Junior and Senior National Championships.
Swim Equipment and Apparel
Coaches have youth goggles for sale for $10. If you would like a
pair, please talk to a coach.  Also, CRAA team caps are for sale if
swimmers need a cap. Coaches will distribute these items to
swimmers when requested and the cost will be billed to each
swimmers account. (Coaches can not accept cash payments due
to club policy.)
Splash Multisport is the CRAA team dealer. CRAA team
members may access their web site by clicking their logo

Lessons:
CRAA offers swim lessons and clinics in the Summer and
Spring.   These are designed for beginners, ages 4-12 (for
group lessons) and ages 3-12 (for private lessons).  See the

Swim Lessons
page for more info.

Registration is now open for Summer swim lessons.
CRAA summer swim lessons are being offered in the
months of June and July.  See the
Swim Lessons page for
the summer schedule and to register.




May Board Meeting
The date for the May CRAA board meeting has been changed to
May 31. The meeting will be held at the CRAA office and will begin
at 7:00 PM. The reason for this change is because the Executive
Director, Age Group Coach and President are all unable to attend
the previously scheduled May board meeting.

The CRAA office is located at 601 2nd Ave SE.

Annual General Meeting
Additionally, since the board needs to meet prior to the 2009
Annual General Meeting, CRAA will also move the date of the AGM
to the 2nd of June at Coe College. This meeting will begin at 7 PM.
At the Annual General Meeting, CRAA will complete the selection
of officers, provide an update on the Mission Statement and
review the financial statements, as well as any other general
business.
