Ten swimmers from the East Bay Sea Serpents swim team participated in the Special Olympics of Northern California's Summer Games held at UC Davis at the end of June. Despite the high temperatures, the Sea Serpents netted a haul of 25 medals including 11 gold, eight silver, and six bronze medals.
All 10 swimmers were selected by SONC to represent the Sea Serpents after a qualifying meet at Laney College in May.
The East Bay Sea Serpents is a team benefitting special-needs athletes age 5 to 50 with a range of swimming abilities. It practices at Campolindo during spring and fall swim sessions. The team is run by volunteers.
