Hi Team-

I have some reminders for you. 

1st: there is no practice tonight, Thursday. St. Mike's is getting new starting blocks and they need to stay dry for the next 24 hours. Therefore there can be no action in the pool. 

2nd: Our 2nd home meet sign up deadline is tonight at 8pm. Please sign-up if you can make it (schedule tab- meet-sign up- click attending or not). I have put longer events in the schedule for this meet, so kids can try them out in this setting before they take it on the road. 

Please sign up for jobs we are always in need of help, especially timers. 

3rd: We are going to be having a small snack bar again at this meet. I have a food donation sign-up, if you feel so inclined. Last time I went a little wild and put too much on there. Here I think I have paired it down, so maybe we will have just enough and not too much left over. Thank you to all who donated food or cash or your time in running the snack bar. We did make enough from the snack bar so we almost covered the cost of running the swim meet. Yay! So we can continue to offer swim meets at little to no cost to the swimmer. 

I will be working on the meet and getting heat sheets out to you tomorrow. I am so excited to be able to have these meets at our home pool. I think it is so great for the kids and the team. The more times they get to challenge themselves and race, the more they learn about themselves and swimming. Thank you parents for donating your time and energy on a busy Saturday morning in one of the craziest times of year. I appreciate all you are doing to make this season a success! Go Sturgeons!
