The Foxfield Flyers is run by a 100% volunteer-based board. The Foxfield Flyers are a registered non-profit, 503(c)(3). The board is responsible for overseeing our mission to provide a love of swimming, community, and health. We meet quarterly during the year and once a month during the active swim season. 

President and Team Representative

Elaine Chen

I have been a resident of Foxfield since 2010 and a Flyer parent since 2016. I personally have seen how much joy the Foxfield Flyers brings to our family each summer. I love how the swim team brings together Foxfield as a neighborhood and community, and I especially love that swim team gives the chance for the older teenagers to teach and nurture the younger swimmers, and for the younger ones to get to know and admire their older teammates. It's been a pleasure to be a part of such a supportive and inviting team.

Vice President

Kari Kain

I have been a resident of Foxfield for over a decade, and Flyers parent for over five years. I am excited to support the Flyers creating a great swim community. 

Treasurer

Becky John

I have been a resident of Foxfield since 2013, and a Flyers swim team parent and volunteer since 2017. I am a mom of two who loves the Foxfield Flyers family - the positivity, the community, and the commitment and drive from each swimmer. As Treasurer, I look forward to supporting and advancing the Foxfield Flyers team, sharing the benefits of community swim with all our current and future Flyers.
