Note from Danielle:  Tim Horne is the Assistant Girls Swim Coach at GMHS. He sent me the following note along with the swim info above… 
The Fall program is designed for the girls that are getting ready for the HS season and want to be competitive.  For sure we are happy to have the boys as well.  We don’t have any age groups, and I run it like a high school practice, so the swimmers need to be fairly strong coming in.  It’s definitely not a “learn to swim program.”  We didn’t have any 8th graders participate last year, but it could work for the really talented kids.  Anyone younger than that would probably not be successful or have any fun. 

Timers Needed for State

If your swimmer is going to the State Meet please check the volunteer time slots for the event.  PLEASE NOTE:  The organizers have done a strange thing and listed the timing slots by event, not by the hour of the day.  I have asked for 2 timers per slot so that they can split the shift. Please speak with the person that is signed up with you and decide who will go first.  Thanks in advance for your help!

It's here!! The Swim Team Banquet — Gator-Style! – WEDNESDAY 5:30PM

We will get together to recognize our swimmers and coaches for an outstanding season, share our thank yous and hand out some awards. We would like to invite all swimmers and their families to our end of the season banquet.  This will be at the Green Mountain Swim Club (which will be closed for our event). The team will provide pizza and water/lemonade.  We are asking families to bring a side dish and/or dessert based on your Last Name to share in our potluck style dinner. 

Time:  5:30 pm – 8:30 pm (or early or later. Hard to say exactly)
Date:  Wednesday, July 25
Place:  GMSC
Bring:  last name begins with A-L: side dish //  last name begins with M-Z: dessert

Also, you may want to bring a camp chair to sit in, a camera to take pics, and cocktails for the board members 🙂

We look forward to seeing all of our Gator families on Wednesday!

League/State Updates

There was a little bit of confusion for warm-up times/locations for League. Please see below.
LEAGUE:
FRIDAY 400’S:  There is an “open” warmup from 4:15-4:55pm. Your swimmer can show up anytime during the open warm up and jump in any lane.
SATURDAY: warm up is at 6:20 am- Upper division will be at GMSC, lower division will be at CKST. However, if you have kids that need to be in both places, just head to CKST and warm up there.
SUNDAY:  Same deal as Saturday
PARENT VOLUNTEERS:  We still need your volunteer help at League:  Please see the sign up Genius. 
STATE PRACTICE NEXT WEEK:
If your child has qualifying times for State or is asked to be in a State relay, practice times will be as follows:
7:00 am – 8:00 am: Upper Division
8:00 am – 9:00 am:  Lower Division
…. and don’t forget that we have a Team Banquet next week on Wednesday, July 25. Don’t forget to check the blog for all the details!
