Swim Team Friends,

In just these few short weeks of swim team, we are so proud of our team. Our swimmers are making fantastic progress in the water and we are hearing about some awesome accomplishments outside of the water! Our team is comprised of a lot of over achievers and our swim families have a lot to juggle right now – All-Star baseball, soccer tourneys, drama performances, dance recitals and more. All of this is to say, we bring good news…we want to gift you time back this weekend. Let us explain…

On our swim team schedule, time trials are due to take place this weekend, Saturday and Sunday (May 18^th and 19^th). With all the success we have been hearing, about our swim families outside “the water”, Coach Nicole had a great idea to begin running time trials this week and on into next week in tandem with already scheduled practice times. This means that we are cancelling time trials this weekend! We are giving you time back to be with your families.

For those of you that signed up to volunteer for time trials this weekend, thank you. The cancellation of the trials still means you get credit as a volunteer. Should you wish to find other ways to help out the team throughout the season, you can sign-up through the RSVP link on the website. However, if your volunteer shift for the time trial was one of four spots that you had signed up for, you do not need to feel obligated to take any further action.

We also want to assure your swimmer(s) that they do not need to do anything extra to prepare for time trials and that they should not be nervous about it. We ask that you simply give them a heads up as to the shift in plans and make every effort to make it to practices. And please be sure they bring their goggles and swim caps to every practice – after all, this equipment helps them go faster you know. :-) 

A final reminder to RSVP by May 16th to the Family Fun Night Potluck & Pep Rally. The event will take place this Saturday, May 18th from 4-7 PM at the Mountaire Park pool. Our special events team has a lot of fun in store for you! We hope to see you there.

Thank you for the continued enthusiasm, support and positive energy that you contribute to our team. Should have you have any questions, please let us know. You know we are always here for you.
