Summer Swim Islanders – Head Coach Scott MacDonald. The Summer Swim program is an amazing experience.  This is available for kids until the age of 17.  DYC is proud to have swimmers as young as 6 being members of the summer team also.  Summer Sim is a competitive based league involving 14 other clubs. It is the oldest Inter-Club swim league in the United States, MICSA.   The summer swim team offers an introduction to competition level swimming, while remaining family and club dedicated. Clubs travel to and are hosted by Private clubs in the league. Following each swim meet there is dinner, and party time so that club members have the opportunity to experience and see other clubs as well as socialize with the Hosting Members Club. The summer swim team is a 10 week program beginning in May, and concluding with a 3 day Championship meet involving all 14 teams.  The Championship meet is always on the last weekend of July.
