Swim Team
Hello!
We are a little less than 2 weeks away from this year’s swim season! If you haven’t signed up yet, please do so. If you do not plan on joining the team this season, please let me know and I will remove you from our list. Our practice times will be different this year. Practices will be Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday mornings. No evening practices in June - all morning practices. Ages 8 and under will practice 9:15 am -10:00am. Ages 9 and up will practice 10:00am - 10:45 am. Practices will begin Tuesday, June 6.
We have 4 meets scheduled this year:
Saturday, June 17 Oakdale Valley @ AO 9am
Saturday, June 24 AO @Wellington Park 9am
Monday, July 10 Fairfax @AO 5pm
Friday, July 14 All City Meet @Mitch Park TBD
Please plan on volunteering to help at each of these meets. It takes all of us for these things to run smoothly:). Don’t worry if you’ve never been to a meet before, we will tell you exactly what you need to do:)
We will also have Cheyenne Parks back this year as our head coach! Coach DJ Scott will be helping her. A few things to keep in mind during practices. Younger siblings (and older siblings) will be allowed to swim on the steps only!! If they continue to swim off the steps and in the way of practice, I will no longer allow them to be in the pool. This goes for swim team members who are not practicing as well.
Swim team shirts - we have had the same shirts for a few years now. If anyone is willing to work on getting our team new shirts, let me know. I simply don’t have the time to take care of that this year. I do know that in order to get a reasonable price on shirts, we have to order in bulk. It is very expensive to order only a few. This is why it is hard to get new team members shirts that match our old ones. So keep that in mind:). Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I’ll see you all soon!
Thanks!
