Complete Briarhill vs DP results

The weather held out enough so it wasn’t too foggy nor too hot for our meet this morning. I think the water may have been a bit chilly due to the cool weather we’ve been having, but it sure was nice by the side of the pool.

Thank you to all you wonderful volunteers who helped run today’s meet. You’re a great crew. (By the way, all the spots for volunteers are filled for our championship meet. Yeah, thank you for helping us.) Special thanks to Garry Bardakos (our starter) and Steve Glenn (our head timer) for stepping up today and doing something they’ve never done before. Both those jobs require a lot of hard work and aren’t easy. We thank you so much.

Thank you, swimmers, for giving us more reasons to cheer today. Lots of you continue to keep getting faster and faster. It’s very fun to see how you’ve improved since the beginning of the season. Special congratulations to our 7-8 girls free relay team of Isla Griston, Amy Heath, Lauren Graham, and Shelby Hicks. They’ve been trying and today they broke an eight-year-old team record for that swim. Good job. 7-8 Girls Break Pool Record 100 Free Relay Time 1:09.16

Thank you, coaches, for seeding us another good meet and for the fantastic cheer. (One of my most-favorite cheers) Your energy was contagious today–and no, Coach Tom did not drink any “monsters” before the meet today. He was charged on that DP spirit.

Our next meet, and our final dual meet of the season, is next Saturday, July 23 against Pleasanton Meadows at our pool. All swimmers need to be checked in with their coach by 8:00. The scratch meeting will be at 8:15, and we hope to begin the meet at 9:00. We have a few special activities for that meet which will begin at 8:45 a.m.

I want to remind you all the the cabana club’s adult party (for ages 21 and over) is also next Saturday, July 23 from 6:00-10:00 p.m. Buy your tickets now through Wednesday and only pay $15/ticket. (After Wednesday, price increases to $20/ticket) This ticket gets you a catered dinner, two drink tickets, music, and an all-around great time out. Please see a lifeguard to purchase your tickets. Please make your check out to DPCC. Hope to see you there.

Swim Buddy slips are due by Wednesday.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Go Stingrays,

Joan
