Welcome to the
Chestnut Oaks Swim Team Website!

We want to take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your dedication and support of the Chestnut Oaks Swim Team. Last season we had over 140 swimmers on our team and we were very proud of the accomplishments of each and every one. We are lucky to have so many wonderful new and returning families who have cheerfully volunteered their time and efforts. It takes over 50 parents to run a swim meet, not to mention the other activities, so we certainly appreciate everyone’s cooperation and time! Once again, we are looking forward to a wonderful 2009 swim season.


This year we are swimming in "West" Division II of the
Greater Richmond Aquatic League!
