Our History

Roseville Swim Club and St. Paul Swim Club. Both predecessor clubs
existed independently for about ten years before they merged. In
1985, the West St. Paul Team joined STAR. The team is based in St.
Paul, Minnesota; however members travel from all over the Twin
Cities metropolitan area to be a part of STAR.
Our Organization
STAR Swim Team is a non-profit organization governed by a Board of
Directors. The team revenue sources are swimmer’s dues,
profits from STAR sponsored swim meets and club fundraisers. STAR
is a member of USA Swimming and Minnesota Swimming, Inc.
Stability and consistent quality are the hallmarks of STAR’s
Coaching Staff. Paul and Sue Lundsten have been with STAR since its
inception. They lead a staff of highly skilled and experienced
staff of full and part time coaches.
STAR families provide support to the swimmers and the coaches
through their participation in team activities including team
trips, fundraising and STAR sponsored meets.
The Board of Directors meets once per month and all parents are
encouraged to personally attend.
All non-profit organizations depend on elected committees and the
strength of their volunteers. STAR is blessed with an extraordinary
group of volunteers who devote many hours every month to the
welfare of the club and its members.
