For the week of August 25th - August 29th

Hello all!

Welcome to the 2014 Swim Season.  Here are the in's and out's of this week:

1.  Practice this week is Monday - Friday at 5:30-7:00 am or pm. 

2.  Please make sure all your paperwork gets done this week and turned in.  The contact info and the team expectations need to go to me or to Teresa.  The Y membership and all monies need to go to the YMCA front desk.  Remember you do not need to pay everything upfront.  The Y is asking for a $50.00 down payment. 

3. During practice this week, I will be collection information for sweatshirt and swim suit sizing so we can have our gear for our first meet.  Here is the link to help pick your suit size. We are getting the suits in the red splatter design.  Just scroll down to the sizing chart and take your measurements.  Please remember the suits are true to size and they are supposed to be fitted to prevent "wardrobe malfunctions".
Ladies Suit
Mens Jammer

4. There will be a YMCA parents meeting on Thursday, August 28th from 7-8pm at the Caldwell Y in the conference room.  If you cannot attend, I will be there taking notes and will post everything to the blog.
