Inclement Weather Policy
SNOW AND ICE CONDITIONS (Winter/Spring)
GMST’s Inclement Weather Policy for snow and ice conditions follows that of the PG County Public School System (PGCPS). Swim practice will be cancelled when PGCPS schools are dismissed early or are closed due to inclement weather. However, swim practice is not affected when PGCPS declares a “late arrival” procedure.
RAINY AND CHILLY CONDITIONS (Summer)
The only time a practice is called on account of rain is during a thunderstorm. This also means that meets, too, are held in the rain. Practice is still on in chilly weather. If the water temperature falls below 70° F then the coaches will have swimmers doing land exercises such as stretching and running.
For further questions about a practice, one option is to call or email the coach or greenbeltswim@gmail.com. The team will also work to let the front desk at the Aquatic Center know if a practice has been cancelled. They can be reached at 301-397-2204.
