Important Updates for the Week of July 3rd

We have a fun week ahead! Please make an extra effort to be on time for practice so we can maximize our time in the water. You should be aiming to be at the pool 10 to 15 minutes before the beginning of your practice time. Thank you!

Be extra careful when signing up for a swim meet that you are checking the boxes next to your name!! Don't be surprised if you don't get to swim exactly what you signed up for – coaches enter you into events that are also best for the team! – Your Coaches

Happy 4th of July! Fun Practice!
