December 29 - January 2 -- Reminder for this week!

Happy New Year Everyone!! 

This is a repeat reminder for this week... 

REMEMBER your attendance counts over the holiday break!! If you are not at 85% on January 15, you will not be able to attend the Cedar City Meet with the team. Several of you are now below 85%. There will be a couple of make-up opportunities in January, but not enough to pull your percentage up much. Coming twice on Mondays also works as a make-up for all but the varsity swimmers.  

Attendance:
  • 100%+: Allison, Maddie, Meghan, Mary, Griffin  
  • 93-99%: Mei, Eden, Kanna, Lauren, Ally, Madeline, Jamie, Katy, Stephanie, Jessie, Nicole, Jackson, Alex, Dylan, Jack, James, Cameron, Travis  
  • 85-92%: Sam, Ainu, Dana, Abbey, Emma, Noah, Daxton, Rob, Jared, Nick, Zach, Ryan, Hank, Nathan (Be careful - could slip below 85%) 
  • <85%: Olivia, Chiharu, Wendy, Adam (need make-ups - DON'T miss!!) 

Anyone whose attendance percentage is below about 92% is vulnerable over this break. The more excused absences you have had, the more careful you must be since your percentage will fall faster. The practice schedule is detailed below. Make careful note of the times. 

This Week (12/29-1/3): 
  • 12/29 Monday:  Practices (BOTH for varsity, ONE for all others) 7-8:30AM and 3-4:30PM
  • 12/30 Tuesday: Practice 8-9:30AM (notice this one is different!)
  • 12/31 Wednesday:  7-8:30AM Varsity AND 3-4:30PM Friends and Family Meet!! ALL family members, alumni and East Swimming friends are invited to participate.  Spread the word! Holiday treats afterward
  • 1/1 Thursday - HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Moratorium - no practice
  • 1/2 Friday: Practice 7-8:30AM
Our Friends And Family Meet on Wednesday afternoon, New Years Eve!, counts as a normal practice (not double like other meets). Families are encouraged to participate and celebrate the New Year with us! Team members are expected to swim 2 events and as many relays as you want with your family and friends. We will have treats afterwards. Events will be: 200 Medley Relay, 50 Free, 50 Breast, 100 IM, 50 Back, 50 Fly, 200 Free Relay.


Lost and Found: I am starting to collect several items that have been left behind by ??? East swim water bottle, black hat, blue and grey fins. Please let me know if these are yours.
