Tents
If you have a tent we could use 1-2 more for the meet. The team owns one and will have it on hand.

Shirts

Saturday GRAY (swimions)
Sunday pink or black

Hydrate
Just a reminder to stay hydrated throughout the day.  This could be a long, hot meet. Smart swimmers that stay hydrated & out of the sun will have the advantage.

Kind Words
The team has had a terrific spring & summer of training with lots of new & effective stroke changes. We are looking forward to & expecting a lot of very fast swims from our swimmers. However,  not all races come together as planned & sometimes we are left disappointed.

No matter how you feel about your swim, your swimmer or your coach please remember to have kind words in the team area and around teammates. We look forward to a fun and fast meet, however disappointments could happen. Let's handle those with grace.

Meet hashtag
When posting anything to social media this weekend please include #swimions in your post

Extra T-Shirts

The Pollock Family has donated about 60 t-shirts sporting the new team logo to our Booster Club. The shirts come in a variety of colors and sizes. 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. Kast-A-Way has not yet printed our red t-shirts, if you would like to order one I suggest you call today. These shirts are being printed on a light weight t-shirt from Sport Tek.

Coach of the Year

Dear Coach, Hope this email finds you well and enjoying the summer. We are writing today on behalf of the upcoming feature film COACH OF THE YEAR: an independent, kid-friendly sports comedy feature film based on the inspiring true story of a rag tag swim team that tries to win a state championship…without a pool to practice in. Director Dave Stott, who has coached swimming for twenty years, hopes that with this film, we will entertain and inspire kids all over the country to learn to swim. Another goal of this film is to raise awareness about drowning as the leading cause of accidental deaths and to help kids all over the country learn to swim safely. The underdog story has been told before, but not for our sport. This is a movie for swimmers (and would-be swimmers), made by people who know the sport intimately and love it passionately, and we’d love for you to be involved. We wanted to ask you and your team to help spread the word about COACH OF THE YEAR, and get you & you
