USA Swimming Safety Contest

By
Calling all athlete members! We need your talent and vision! Bring us your original poster designs. The poster must be about safety in the pool (competition or training) or open water (competition or training) or dryland (training), the rest is up to your imagination.

From the LSC winners the Safety Education Committee will pick 10 posters to be displayed at Olympic Trials. The Grand Prize winner will be selected at Olympic Trials based on voting by visitors to the display.

All athlete members are eligible. Contact your LSC’s Office or your LSC’s Safety Chair - John Pristash at jpristash@bex.net for details on how to submit your Safety Poster. 

Awards:
•All entries at LSC level will receive a specially designed Deck Pass Patch

Each family will have their chance to pick ONE shirt on Monday or Tuesday at practice. On Wednesday, any shirts remaining will be available to anyone. A donation to the booster club for your shirt is optional. The kids are now receiving their team t-shirts that were made exclusively for kids and coaches.

Mandatory SafeSport Training for Parents and Athletes

By
Every two years USA Swimming requires each SafeSport designated club to refresh their policies and renew their education base. As one of the first 50 clubs in the country to hold the SafeSport designation, Buckeye is continuing to lead the way in creating multiple paths towards protecting our athletes in and out of the water.  We have completed every step to renew our designation except education.  It is now time for each parent  on our team and swimmers 12 and over   to take the SafeSport course.  In order to do so you must have an account at USA Swimming.   Parents:   please take the course while waiting at practice or meet warmups.  It's quick and very informative.   Swimmers: this is a great way to spend your drive time to the pool (if you aren't driving of course).
