Hi, my name is Aidan Gravitt! I’ve been swimming since second grade and am currently swimming collegiately at Roanoke College!
Emilee Brooks is one of our assistant coaches this summer. She is 19 years old and a 1st year nursing major at the University of Virginia. She has been a part of the Wembly family for many years as a swimmer, lifeguard, and private lesson instructor. She swam for Douglas S. Freeman highschool and is a member of Club Swim at UVA. Away from the pool, she enjoys baking, theater, and all kinds of arts and crafts. She looks forward to an amazing season with the Wembly Waves this summer.
My name is Brooke Farrey and am currently a student at Virginia Tech studying computational modeling and data analytics. Swimming for the wembly waves was always one of my favorite parts of summer and after being on the team for 9 years and swimming for Nova as well, I cannot be more excited to be a coach this year. Outside of swimming, I played volleyball all four years at my highschool and played 2 years of club as well, playing the outside, DS, and middle positions.
We cannot wait for the swim season to begin next month.
Please join us Sunday, April 24th from 4-6pm at the Wembly clubhouse to meet the coaches and ask any questions you may have.
