Aqua Angels
Synchronized swimming is a sport that requires strength, endurance, breath control, flexibility and an ear for music. The swimmers never touch the bottom, but use water treading and hand sculling techniques to propel themselves and others in the water.
The Meredith College Aqua Angels swim in several performances a year in Weatherspoon Pool on the Meredith campus which are free to the public.
Performance Dates:
- Aqua Angels...Swim to Once Upon a Time
November 12th & 13th 2009 - 8:00pm
Weatherspoon Pool
- Aqua Angels...Spring Show
- March 25th and 26th 2010 - 8:00
