    BTW Swimmer's Weekly - December 17, 2023

    December 17th

    ***From the Booster Club***

    From the Coaches

    • Swimmer of the Week:
      • For the Week of Dec. 4th-Claire was named swimmer of the week due to her consistency and positive attitude. She is always ready to work and never takes a break. She is willing to swim whatever event is thrown at her without complaint. She is always one of the biggest cheerleaders at meets as well. 
      • For the week of Dec. 11th-Lucious was last week's swimmer of the week. Lucious has seen major improvements since the beginning of the year both in practice and at races. He completed our final this week of swimming all the events in a high school meet back-to-back in easy order and was in the first lane to finish(even though it was not a race). I expect to see Luscious get better and better as he continues to swim. 
    • Practice this week: 
      • Please arrive at 2:45 and be suited and ready to go at 3. We will swim until 5:15-5:30 M-Thurs. 
      • Drag will be required this week. Please make sure you have something appropriate. 
      • Friday please arrive by 1pm and be ready to stretch at 1:15. We will start swimming at 1:30. Please bring a water bottle and appropriate snacks to eat during 100x100s. All swimmers will have until 5:30 to complete
    • The following week, we will practice Tues-Friday. Please arrive at 2:45 and be suited and ready to go at 3. We will swim until 5:15.

    From the Booster Club

    •  In order for our coaches and communications team to enjoy the Christmas holiday with their families, there will be NO Swimmer's Weekly December 24th. Also, for the new year's weekend, the Swimmer's Weekly for week of December 31st will go out on December 30.
    • Swimmers - Please RSVP (whether it is yes or no) if you will be at Friday's 100 x 100 Challenge. We need to ensure there are enough counters. Please be sure to RSVP by Tuesday, December 19 at noon.
    • Sign ups are open for lane counters for the 100x100 on the Meets & Events page . At this time, we need 1 person to help with lane counting; this is important to track the swimmers' count to ensure they don't over or under swim. Depending on how RSVPs come in the next day and a half, we may need more. We'll reach out mid-week if additional counters are needed.
    • The fundraising link has been created for this year's 100 x 100 Challenge. If you are inclined, please share with your networks and help us raise funds for equipment and other team needs. Each swimmer should have received information from Kevin; the donation page can be found here.
      • Our fundraising goal this year is $3,500!
      • The top three fundraisers will earn a prize
    • Seniors- There are still a few who need to fill out the Senior Night Form; if you would also like to change an answer, please use this link:
