It was the offseason - post was made in April.

So now that we have a new building, what do you think of the new facilities?

Friends of SMU Swimming and Diving,

Just two weeks from today we will be dedicating the Robson & Lindley
Aquatics Center and officially moving in to our new home! The
furniture has been installed and the construction team is down to
final punch list items. It is almost complete, and everyone who has
seen it has been extremely impressed. We should all be very proud of
this facility. We hope that you’ll all be able to attend the
dedication on Friday, November 3rd, at 3pm and take part in the
beginning of the next chapter of SMU Swimming and Diving.

With regards to fundraising, we have raised $21.2 million leaving just
$800k to go to reach our goal. It should be noted that approximately
$600k has been raised since the announcement of the Sheila and Jody
Grant Challenge exactly one month ago! The response from the
community to the Grant Challenge has been outstanding.

We hope to be able to announce that the funding goal has been met by
the time of the dedication, which leaves just two weeks to raise the
remaining amount. If you haven’t yet made a gift, please make one
today! If you’ve already made a gift, please consider the possibility
of doing more. :D

Yes, my Will does state that; but I learned that the filters will remove me after I have floated on the surface. Should I be concerned? :shock:
