OCTOBER 13-17, 2014

Hi Swimmers and  Parents - 

We are on our way!  We survived our first week of the season.  It was fun to have everyone at practice.  It sounds like the party on Saturday was well attended and really fun!  MANY thanks to the Wright, Swanson, Colgan, and Hopson families for making it a success!  Watch for photos on Instagram and the Blog site.  

Schedule for this week:
Mon, Tues, Wed - 3-4:30pm at SL Sports Complex (dryland from 3-3:30 on Wed before swimming)
Tues - 5:30-7am at Fairmont Aquatic Center.  Breakfast after.  There will be a school bus at 7:20am for those who do not have a car.  We are paying for the bus, so please use it rather than crowding into cars! This practice is required for VARSITY.  For JV & Varsity-Invited, ONE practice on Tues is required, the other can be used as make-up.
Thurs & Fri (UEA) - NO practice, ENJOY
I still don't know the expected opening of our indoor pool - I've gotten conflicting reports.

A few things to remember:
- While I appreciate an email, call, text, or note saying why a swimmer won't be at practice, that does not mean it's excused. For a practice to be excused, I either need a note from the health professional, or an in-person visit from the swimmer or parent. 
- 1 to 20 minutes late = 75% attendance for the day; more than 20 minutes late = absence. 
- I still need paperwork or registermyathlete (RMA) sign-up from several of you:  
Ian Ashworth - all paperwork, RMA is transfer pending 
Ryan Pratt - physical (a signature is needed), RMA
Sam Henshaw, Nicole Sullivan, Abby Jensen - RMA
Olivia Brown - pg 3 of physical form
Jamie Lewis & Lauren Hash - Athlete info form for team directory, and other misc. forms
Alicia Jimenez - physical

One last thing - Jodie still has a someone's tent left from the pancake breakfast.  To claim it, call Jodie (801-712-0456).

Good start everyone!

Go East!!
