Swimsuit Sale + Swap
Lower Pool Grounds
Start: 4:00 PM
End: 7:00 PM (estimated)

SportFair will be at HRA on Monday, June 9th, from 4:00–7:00 PM to sell team suits — try before you buy.

Boys will have two options (jammers and briefs); girls will have several styles to choose from.

  • Outgrown your suit? Bring it — we'll pass it along to a family who can use it.
  • Not sure if your swimmer needs a team suit? If they'll only be swimming B meets, or you're still figuring out their schedule, skip it for now and grab a plain black swimsuit instead. SwimOutlet.com has a solid selection that works just fine.
  • Can't make it on the 9th? Head to SportFair's Arlington location at 5010 Langston Blvd. They know our team and will take good care of you.
