BTW Swimmer's Weekly - April 14, 2024
April 14th
***From the Booster Club***
From the Coaches
- Pool update: The new pump has arrived but upon trying to install it, there were some damaged gaskets and washers. Those have been ordered and will arrive Thursday. Pump is scheduled to be installed Friday. We will get back in the water as soon as possible, but not this week.
- Summer Practice: I plan to run practice throughout the summer. I have the pool reserved M-F from 3 to 5. My goal is to have swimmers have a good cardio base once the season starts. I understand that summer is about vacation and work for some, so practice is not mandatory. BUT, the more you put in this summer, the better you will be next season. And summer practice is a way to start to get to know our incoming teammates. There will be no practice the weeks of June 10th or July 1st.
- Mailing address: I would love for seniors to send me graduation announcements. If you have one you would like to send me, please reach out to me for my mailing address. I do not receive mail at my house.
- Non-returning swimmers: Please return your parkas.
