Volunteering

6/21/2011

0 Comments

 
We’d like to get the ball rolling on planning the banquet.  A few people have asked what they can do to help the team, but they might be by themselves at the meets with small children in tow.  This is for you!  Please let Coach Kate know if
you would like to help plan the banquet.
  Much of it could be done at home.  If we got a small group together to meet this week or next week, we would have plenty of time to organize it stress-free. 
 
Please keep in mind that we’ve planned for each family to help at least 5 sessions during the season.  With a team this large, no one family should have to bear much of the load themselves.   Also, teenagers who would like to earn volunteer hours are more than welcome to help!  Here's the link to sing up to volunteer:  link
Thanks!!

Team and Individual Pictures

6/21/2011

Our season is rolling along quickly, so we’re going to schedule team pictures for the next 2 weeks.  Since it would take too much time to  get each swimmer’s individual picture at the same time, we’re going to divide  them up into 2 groups.  We’re hoping that this scenario will work out for everyone.

Lisa Feliciano has generously offered to handle this undertaking and will be donating ALL profit back to our swim team to purchase equipment, awards, and the rental for the banquet venue.   By keeping the prices low, this should be a win-win for everyone.
 
If you would like to capture your child’s involvement in the swim team this year, please show up at the times listed below.  The order form is attached, and we wanted to get the schedule out to you ASAP.
 
Thursday, June 23 – Individual pictures for swimmers with the last name from A-L                
     11 and over  - 5:00                
     10 and under – 6:30

 Tuesday, June 28  – Individual pictures for swimmers with the last name from M-Z
    11 and over  - 5:00                
    10 and under – 6:30

 Thursday,  June 30 – Team picture before meet – 4:00 Don’t be late!  
We’d like to have everyone included.

 Tuesday, July 5  – Individual make-ups  5:30-6:30
 
If your family consists of children who attend both practice times, please reply if you would like BOTH of them to take their “individual” picture together and we will find a time that works.  We’re trying to minimize the amount of time you and your children will need to wait to have their picture taken.

First Early Practice This Friday Morning!

6/9/2011

0 Comments

 
Just a reminder that our morning (M W F) practices start this Friday 10 June at 7:30a.  Make sure to check the Calendar to know when your age group will be practicing.  Also our first meet is this Saturday at Pace Island (directions are also on the Calendar event) and you can print your own copy of the Heat Sheet off from the Forms page. 

Lastly, Parents, don't forget to fill in any empty spaces we are required to fill at both Home and Away swim meets by clicking on the Swim Team Volunteer Sign-ups on the Calendar page. Spots that aren't filled in by Thursday night will be "volunteered," so we appreciate your taking initiative! Thanks!!
