Follow the 'Phins
Being a Dolphin means something different to each of us; we are a community of diverse interests and experiences, and backgrounds, and we welcome all. Some members come for personal challenges, and some are in the house or on the dock for company. Some are motivated by group swims under a full moon, others for rows to the Ferry Building, or for weekly ukulele time or handball matches. And any list would be remiss without mentioning the draw of time together in and around the galley. Others come to get their individual swim or row or time in the weight room before the next item on their daily agenda. Many take the time to help the Club, which as a volunteer-run organization, we always need.
What you see here is us at (Club) work and at play. Clean up? Dress up? Eat up? Warm-up? Show up!
