About Penguins
Welcome to the Penguin Swim Team (PST), a non-profit organization that sponsors swimming activities in Nevada County.
The Penguin Swim Team was started in 1968. We only had a handfull of swimmers, and the team was officially called the “Grass Valley Swimming Penguins”. The program has grown and now offers six different swim groups for kids, a number of Master’s swim opportunities, and summer swim lessons.
We have been told that we are the highest elevation year round swim program that swims in an outdoor pool (it is heated!). While that may not be something to brag about, we think it shows how much we love swimming. Our program offers opportunities for very competitive swimmers, recreational swimmers, and everyone in between. We build strong swimmers, personal discipline, and lifelong friendships.
