Notes:
The Marlin Club began at Springfield College in the fall of 1961. It started as an all-women’s club that invited female students of all skill levels to participate. Prior to this, there was the Synchronized Swimming Club. The Marlin Club focused on the idea that “synchronizing routines in the water and interpreting and creating dance movements reveal the potential of originality”. The climax of the year for the Marlin Club occurred in the spring, where the Aquatic Concert was presented to the entire student body and community. The Club continued as an all-women’s club up until the fall of 1969, when all deep water swimmers were invited to participate. The Marlin Club enjoyed its final year at Springfield College, performing its last show in the spring of 1978.
