After the rain and colder temperatures last night and this morning, the pool temp is currently 75 degrees. That is right on the limit for cancelling practice so we will still hold practice, but parent discretion is encouraged for smaller swimmers. We will adjust as needed with early releases or dry land practice.
I will update about night practice later this evening.
If your swimmer participated in bead collecting that we started this season they should bring their beads to the banquet tomorrow. The coaches will have a station where swimmers can make something to show off their achievements for the season. See you tomorrow!
Due to the turn out at our 9-10 am practice we will be swimming only two practice sessions for the rest of this week: upper division 6:30-8 and lower division 8-9.
Also, night practice will continue on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for upper division this week. There will be no night practice next week for state.
Excellent job to all the swimmers who participated in league today! We had many outstanding time drops, some new state qualifiers, broken records, and nail biter relay wins. All of the hard work paid off and we beat out Golden for 3rd place!
I have league ribbons, so they will be sorted and available for pickup at the banquet Wednesday. Kayli and I are doing state entries tomorrow, so check your email or phone because we can fill relays if they have at least one state qualifier, so we will pull some swimmers for just relays. Entries are due Monday at noon, so we will be as quick as we can and finish the entries for review. We will see state qualifiers and relay swimmers for practice on Monday! Upper division 7-8, 12 and under 8-9.
Huge congratulations again! Your hard work paid off!
Night practice is cancelled tonight predicting severe thunderstorms
Reminder upper division will late start at 7 am tomorrow. If that schedule prohibitive, I will be there by 6:30 to let people in. Also, if you are interested in doing sharpie decorations (e.g writing “eat my bubbles” on your back, drawing a gator, and/or applying temporary tattoos) for league, that will happen after practice. Bring a marker if you have one. We have some, but the more the better!
