Hello Team! The summer season is upon us!

Schedule
Practices this year will start a week earlier then before. As there is still school in session, we will have evening practices at the outdoor pool on May 28, 29, 30, and 31. We also restructured our evening practices: 11 & Over 6:00-7:15pm, 10 & Under 7:15-8:00pm. For more information on our practice schedule, please see our website.

You can find our team schedule on our team’s home page. Please mark your calendars! Our first event is the Mock Meet and Kick Off Party, on Tuesday, June 4. This mock meet will run as close to a real meet as possible, with a starter buzzer and heat sheets and everything else! This is not only a great opportunity for swimmers to practice doing a meet, but also for our parents to practice working a meet.

Officials Training
There is an online officials training tomorrow evening at 7:00pm! You can join the online class from your web browser. This free training certifies you to be a Stroke & Turn Judge at meets. Swim meets are dependent on the capacity of our volunteers, we truly cannot run a meet without Officials. No swimming experience is required to be an official. We need more officials - please email me if you are available!

Equipment
All swimmers on the swim team need the following for practices:

• Bathing suit
• Goggles
• Swim Cap (only for keeping long hair out of the way)
• Water Bottle (no glass)
• Short Fins (Example on Amazon)

Our team has plenty of kickboards for everyone to share!

Meet Themes
All swimmers aged 13 & Over will vote on the swim meet themes! The most popular theme will be for City Meet. Vote Here Now!
