Well, the sunshine came back at just the right time for a very beautiful meet tonight. I was so afraid it was going to be foggy, cold, and rainy. We got lucky. Thank you, Mother Nature.

Thank you all for being on time tonight and for all the extra help that was needed to run tonight’s meet. It was kind of nice to see what an automated timing system would be like at our pool–without having to buy one. It did require more help with timing and setting-up. A big thank you to all who helped and all that did more than one job tonight so we would be covered. And, that snack bar menu and food was outstanding!

Swimmers, thank you again for providing us with such great races to watch. Those times are a droppin’. Your hard work continues to pay off. Keep it up.

Coaches, thank you for all your time and expertise to get those swimmers faster each meet. I do love sitting by the edge of a pool with you.

Our next meet is Wednesday, July 6 at our pool against FAST. All swimmers need to be checked in with their coach by 5:00 p.m. The scratch meeting will be at 5:15, and we hope to start the meet at 6:00. Your coaches and I need to know by this Friday if your swimmer will not be participating in this meet. Tomorrow I’ll send out the list of “out” swimmers we have so far. Next week will be a quick turn-around for meets. We have one Wednesday and then again on Saturday. The coaches have lots of work to do to be ready for these meets. By Monday, July 4, they’ll need to know if your swimmer will be out for the Saturday, July 9 meet. With the holiday and such, please think about this and communicate with us so the coaches will know who/what to expect. Thanks.

Our evening practice on Monday, July 4 has been changed to a morning practice. Treat it as you would any morning practice.

That’s it for now. Nite-Nite.

Go Del Prado,

Joan

Hi Everyone!
Just a reminder to join us at Sweet Tomatoes tomorrow night for our Del Prado fundraiser.  It starts at 5pm and they are giving us a generous 20%!!  The only catch is you must bring the flyer and order drinks with your meal.

Attached is the flyer –> Download Fund Raiser Flyer

We’ll have a stack of them at the pool tonight and tomorrow morning in case you don’t have a printer.    Feel free to forward this to friends and family.  The more the merrier!
