These swimmers were recognized for their hard work and good attitudes. Meet the coaches in the pool parking lot at 3 PM on Tuesday (note date change due to July 4th on Wednesday). The coaches will take them to get TCBY, and bring them back for practice.
Divisionals Theme
The coaches announced last night after the meet that our Divisionals parade theme will be Star Wars “May the Fox Be With You!” Your swimmers can wear a star wars costume for the parade, but NO light sabers. (We will be giving them pool noodle light sabers…shhh it’s a surprise!...we will be collecting them after the parade).
