Good afternoon team!

It's been a great week of practice where we were able to work on freestyle and backstroke. Our backstroke clinic will be tomorrow for anyone who would like to work on drills and other aspects of backstroke. If you have fins, please bring them. Times tomorrow are as follows:

9-10am: 11&up

10-11am: 10&under (no half lappers)

Next week, we will start learning breaststroke for 7yrs old and older. No fins are needed for this, but please start thinking about getting some, as we will need them for butterfly the following week. Our supply in the cabinet is very limited and many of our fins are on their last leg. We've already had to throw away several pairs. We do not have enough for every swimmer and I would love for every swimmer to be able to use fins for butterfly week. Fins can be purchased on Amazon, on swimoutlet.com, or on swim2000.com. If you are a returning swimmer and the fins you used last year do not fit anymore, please consider donating your fins to the team that we can use for swimmers who may not be able to purchase their own or who forget their fins on a day when we use them.

Lastly, for the 11&up group from 6:30-7:30pm, please make sure they are being picked up promptly after practice ends. I need to leave quickly after practice to get home to my family and would appreciate your cooperation.

If you have a half lapper and they are coming on Tues/Thurs and you are willing to come Mon/Wed, please let me know as we have smaller groups on Mon/Wed and I would love to even it out a little more.

See you poolside!
