CHANGE OF DATE FOR MEET NEXT WEEK!!!

IMPORTANT!!!!!!

I just received an email that they need to change our meet to next Friday, September 6th instead of Saturday, September 7th.  The time will be 1:30 PM for coaches meeting and warm-ups at 2 PM.  If you are driving with a parent you MUST be there no later than 1:50 PM.  The van will be leaving the school at 10:00 AM.

Please let me know if you will be riding with a parent, as I only have room for 14 swimmers.  If I have too many swimmers we will have to only take 14 kids to this meet and rotate for the next meet.  It is a varsity meet, so these kids will get priorities if it comes to that.  If your parent is driving and has room for anyone please let me know. 

I HAVE TO HAVE 3 parents to volunteer as timers!!  This is mandatory for every team in order to attend meets.  Please let me know which meet your parent can volunteer for.  I must have 3 volunteers for Friday, so text me or email me to let me know.

Thank You!!!   I am so excited for our first meet and to watch you all shine!!! 

Also - sweatshirts are ordered and so are swim suits.  I have paid for these items on my own personal credit card, so make sure you get me the money as soon as possible.  :)

Thank You!!!

Diving Clinic Opportunity!!


     
Diving Clinic


This Saturday, January 12th, 2019
11am – 1pm
College of Idaho Pool, 2112 Cleveland Blvd, Caldwell, ID 83605
Cost - $20.00
The Diving Coach at the College of Idaho, CJ Hardy, is offering an incredible opportunity this Saturday! He graciously offered to teach a diving clinic to the middle school and high school students of Vision Charter.  If you are interested in improving your dive, not just off the side of the pool, or the starting blocks but would like to learn how to professionally dive off the diving boards, this clinic is for you.  Please make sure to be at the pool on Saturday with your suit, cap, goggles, towel, your $20 and the waiver that is on the back of this flyer.  Waivers must be signed by a parent in order to participate.

*If you haven’t raced, swam or dived competitively before, that is okay.  You must be able to swim one length of the pool and not be afraid of the deep end in order to participate. *

Questions?  Please contact Vision Charter Head Swim Coach Kara Evans at karaevans@visioncsd.org
