Dive Into Summer: 2026 SVKW Kickoff Party!

Get ready to make a splash! The Shepherds Vineyard Killer Whales are back for the 2026 season. We are so excited to see our returning swimmers and welcome all the new faces to the pod!

Join us for our annual Welcome Back Event as we get pumped for a summer of speed, sportsmanship, and serious fun.

What’s the Plan?

We have plenty of land-based fun to keep the energy high:

–The Swag Station: Pick out some free SVKW goodies!

–Cookie Decorating: Visit this station to fuel up with a sweet treat (sprinkles are highly encouraged).

–Deck Games: Challenge your friends to a little competitive fun!

The party is happening from 5-8pm so drop by before or after your scheduled swim practice.

Killer Whale Challenge: Grab a teammate from your age group—maybe someone you haven't met yet!—and head over to the activities together. Everything is better with a swim buddy!

Important Note to Families:

- Please RSVP so that we can be sure to have enough for everyone.

- If there are any food allergies we need to be aware of, please email Amanda at [email protected] at least 3 days before the event so we can find a safe alternative.
