With a heavy heart, I'm announcing my departure from BST. It's been a great 5-year run. We wrangled with the covid pandemic, rebuilt our numbers, broke a dozen records, and, finally, won the 2024 district championships.

I started my swimming career with BST in 1983 and had my first coaching experience with this team in 1985 before my own children swam here in the early 2000s. So many children have started serious swimming careers with this tiny team in this tiny town. 

I feel blessed and I'm deeply grateful for the experiences I've had with your children. They have taught me most of what I know about being a better coach.

This year I'm building a summer program for the Keene YMCA where I've been hired as a full-time, year-round coach for my 9th year with the Dolphins.

The BST board is considering the future of this program. If you're interested in contributing to this effort reach out to the board. Vickie Rea is currently the President. [email protected]
