NOVEMBER 10-15, 2014 -- Great Week Last Week!
Hi all,
First of all - Fabulous job at the meet
everyone! Many of you beat your best times from last year. Amazing!
Our team scores were not great, but like I told you at practice, we
can't win as a team unless we fill all the events. We had several
events with only one person swimming. We also had several people unable
to swim, for various reasons. Both of those things need to change if
we want to win as a team. Individually though, wow! You were
fantastic! That was a great start. Let's keep it up! You can find
results on the blog: eastswimteam.blogspot.com
Second
- GREAT job at the Chipotle fundraiser! We raised $1278. This money
will be used for activities, travel, equipment, and the year end
banquet. I loved the camaraderie I felt between team members.
Next - There is a team activity planned for November 15 at 7:45 pm - Lazer Quest and Dinner (7202 S 900 E, Midvale)
The team will play two laser tag games and have pizza in the party room. The cost for this activity is $5 per swimmer which we will collect that evening. There will be a sign-up list at practice this week to get a count of swimmers that will be participating.
Parents, if you can help with this activity please contact Jodie Swanson (snjswanson@msn.com or 801-712-0456).
