Hey Swim Team Families,

We are getting into the thick of things with the end of school and beginning of summer swim team and our days/evenings are so mixed up. Included below are some reminders and communication to set everyone up for success for the first day of practice tomorrow – Thursday, May 15.

1)Practices – practices for Thursday and Friday will be a skill assessment of what each of the swimmers can do. The coaches will play games, do the assessments and then start practicing or working on stroke mechanics outside of the water.

2)Afternoon Practice Times for May 15 – 21 (MTWHF)

• 4:45 – 5:15 – 6&U
• 5:15 – 6:00 – 7/8
• 6:00 – 6:45 – 9/10
• 6:45 – 7:30 – 11/12, 13/14, 15-18

3)Remind App – In testing Remind this week, it has come to my attention that it is not working as well or as consistently as in the past; we are working to solve this problem. In the meantime, any changes to practice schedules due to weather will still be sent through Remind but also sent through email.

4)1^st Day of Practice – Friendly Faces – Natalie Schuler, Mary Pat Johnston, Jen DuFore and Amy Beard will be on deck during the practices at various times. They can help you get spirit wear, a non-resident pass and answer questions about the summer swim team season. They will be wearing royal blue shirts that say – Surrounded by Crocs on the front.

5) Please see the attached "Practice Layout" to know where to enter the pool and where parents can sit during practices. 

6)New Parent Meetings – Thursday, May 15 at 5:00pm and Friday, May 16 at 6:45pm.

7)Summer Boot Camp Classes – one of our sponsors is donating 4 bootcamp classes for moms during the morning practices in June – please see attached flyer for more information.

8)Volunteer Shifts Registration opens Friday, May 16 at 7:30pm. Refer to email from Megan Melchiors on May 13 for more specific information.
