masters relay FUNraiser

Saturday, June 20 - Long Beach

The Long Beach Grunions spent Saturday morning joining our friends from, Riptide and Swim Long Beach along other local teams for a morning of fun relays, friendly competition, and community spirit.

The event raised funds for the Waterproof Our Youth initiative, which helps provide water safety education and swim opportunities for underserved youth in our community.

From relay races and team challenges to plenty of laughs on the pool deck, the morning was a great reminder of how swimming brings people together. Thank you to everyone who participated, volunteered and donated.

Grunions Memory Quilt

Sunday, July 19 - Long Beach

A huge thank you to Rachel Jiang for creating this incredible Grunions memory quilt! Rachel spent countless hours transforming years of our team T-shirts into a single piece that tells the story of our club. Every shirt represents memories, friendships, meets, and milestones, making this a wonderful way to preserve and celebrate the history of the Long Beach Grunions. Thank you, Rachel, for sharing your time, talent, and creativity with our team. We love it!

Riptides swimmers join Grunions practice

Saturday, May 23 - Long Beach

With the Riptides Masters Swimming pool temporarily closed while being used as an evacuation site during the Garden Grove chemical leak, the Long Beach Grunions opened our practice to any Riptides swimmers who wanted to jump in and train with us.

It was great having Coach Cory and several Riptides members at practice tonight. This is what the Masters swimming community is all about — supporting each other, sharing lanes, and coming together when it matters.
