Big Fox Brunch - May 8, 10:30 AM: We are excited to kick off the swim season again with our Big Kid Brunch! This year we are asking all of our older swimmers (current 6th - 12th grade) to meet at the shelter this Saturday to connect with other older swimmers, give feedback about the season, and find out who their new Fox Friends are. The entire event will be outside, volunteers will serve all the food wearing gloves and/or using tongs (swimmers will not serve themselves), and drinks will be individually packaged.

Parents of swimmers in 6th grade and up...we would love your help with two things!

1. Get your swimmers there!
2. Please use this SignUp Genius Link to help send in items we need for the brunch. In order to keep it Covid friendly, we are asking for help purchasing some individual items that we will serve the kids.

Feel free to reach out to Kristin Rollins with questions ([email protected]). Thanks for your help in making the kickoff for this swim season a great one!

Practice Policies and COVID Protocols:

We have practice expectations and policies on our website here. Coaches will do their best to minimize the amount of time swimmers spend in close contact by spacing where swimmers stand for instruction and rest time. Our practices, however, will be at full capacity, and coaches will not be responsible for enforcing social distancing. Swim Team families must follow the COVID guidelines sent to the neighborhood in the May Foxcroft Newsletter. In simplest form: if sick or exposed, stay home. Additionally, we ask all swim team members to notify Erin Chilton of any confirmed or suspected COVID cases as soon as possible.

Treats: Every Tuesday after practice and every Friday following meets, we provide food to the swimmers. A sign-up genius will be coming soon. Social committee members have a copy of the allergy report, but if you have any concerns, please feel free to come and check labels.

Swim Suits: Don’t forget to order your suits and caps by May 8.

Volunteer info: Certified officials must attend Zoom trainings between May 6 & May 27. Find the dates here.

Weather information will be sent as a group text through the Remind app. If you haven’t done so already, please sign up. Text @foxswims to 81010.

GO FOX!
