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!
BANQUET IS ON: RAIN OR SHINE!
Hello Gator Families. Please join us at 5:30pm tonight for our annual team banquet. IF YOU HAVE A POP UP TENT, P,LEASE BRING IT! We had a wonderful banquet last year in the pouring rain and it looks like we might have the same this year. We look forward to seeing your family tonight and celebrating another successful Gator season.
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!
