Swim & Dive Updates
What a fun first meet of the season! We had some awesome swims for this time of the season. We will continue to work on little things to help all our swimmers improve. We cannot wait for the next few weeks to watch all of the improvement!
We loved our first inter squad dive meet. We cannot wait to watch our divers this week against CS&T. Dive is 1:30 Warm Ups, 2:00 start.
Our meet is Wednesday at CS&T. Swim is 3:00 Warm Ups with a 4pm start. It is a fun rivalry and it should be an awesome meet. Craig has sent out the meet entries, so let Craig know ASAP if you cannot make it or now can make it. Complete this attendance form for this meet or any upcoming meets you cannot attend.
Thank you for those members who have already signed up to volunteer! You rock! In order to run a swim meet, we need many parent volunteers. We ask that each family tries to volunteer a minimum of two times if their child participates on the swim team. For CS&T, we need 5 more timers and 1 bullpen person. For the bullpen, you just need to help organize the swimmers into their correct event, heat and lane. Click here to volunteer!
Youth Tennis Updates
Our tennis teams played against CS&T this week. Both coaches did a great job of matching up players and the kids had fun!
This week, we play against Wedgewood! On Tuesday, the boys A team will play at Wedgewood at 1pm, while the girls A team plays at home at 1pm. On Thursday, the girls will play at Wedgewood at 1pm, while the boys A team plays at home. Be sure to cheer on our players if you see them on the courts this week!
Adult Tennis & Swim Updates
Each week, we see new faces on the courts! We had a full court of tennis and a full court of pickleball on Thursday evening! If you haven’t had a chance to try our adult activities, come on down! It’s a lot of fun.
This Friday, Dave will be hosting adult cardio tennis at 8 am and pickleball at 8:30am. Please join us if you can!
Like tennis, we keep seeing new faces join us in the pool! It’s been a lot of fun and a great workout. Clewis and Kate will be hosting practice on Tuesday from 7-8pm and Saturday from 10-11am. Please note, they will not be hosting this Thursday due to Adult Bingo.
