Today's Practice - all groups same time, bring tennis shoes - swimmers will be doing dryland before getting in the water

Missing a Meet - please sign the orange sheet if your swimmer is missing a meet or RSVP online (only if MISSING a MEET).  Coach Claudia prefers that swimmers attend at least two dual meets and the Championship meet.  It is VERY important that we know ahead of time if your swimmer will not be attending a meet.

Learn to swim/Noncompetitive roster - Just a reminder that the swim team is full and we have several swimmers on the waitlist for this season.  Coach Claudia will be doing her best to evaluate the swimmers over these first two weeks with the cooler water.  If you know ahead of time, that your swimmer is not ready for competition this year and would like him/her to be on our learn to swim/noncompetitive roster,  please let Coach Claudia or Kelly Hunt know ASAP.  Remember all swimmers on our learn to swim/noncompetitive roster will still attend all practices and all social events, but will NOT be entered into any meets this season.
