Hello PACK
families!
As we make our
way through October, the newly elected Board of Directors and staff
of Premier Aquatics would like to wish our PACK families a Happy
Halloween! As we have seen a wonderful Intra-Squad, our first
couple of meets, and the new members ofthe Board of Directors take
their place, PACK is off and running!
PACK
SwimAThon…Participation that Makes a
Difference!
PACK has embarked on
its second annual SwimAThon and has goals to raise at least
$30,000. Last year the money raised was used for an amazing banquet
and new team camera system! We will continue to utilize the money
raised for team enrichment and development. With the prizes that
are out of this world, it is easy to get involved! I am asking that
each family make a concentrated effort to raise as much money as
possible for the team. With this being the only fundraising event
that PACK hosts, we need it to be a smashing
success!
We desperately need
full participation from all…and, at this point, a bunch of
the coaches have volunteered their bodies for the cause. There will
be a coach’s relay to complete the 200 laps in 2 hours and we
will make a big effort to fundraise as well. I will take email
pledges from team members that want to watch us go through
pain…and smile knowing you helped make it happen. Thanks in
advance to all who participate!
Intra-Squad Success…The
Vision of Team!
The Intra-Squad meet
was a HUGE success! The theme for the meet was all about dreaming,
and I heard some great ones along the way. At PACK, we want all of
our swimmers to dream big, dream often, but no matter
what….just dream!
The
“Big’s and Little’s” program made its debut
helping our younger swimmers connect with our older swimmers; it
was truly a great display of family, fun, and development for all.
As one of our goals is to create a safe environment for swimmers to
grow as people and swimmers, the Intra-Squad seemed to quickly
imply that we are well on our way!
We also elected new
members to the Board of Directors. With our first meeting and
designation of positions behind us, our new Board members are off
and running! I would like to take this time to express my unending
debt and heartfelt gratitude to our out-going Board members: Kevin
Little and Doug Massey…your care and objectivity for the
vision of Premier Aquatics is greatly appreciated.
Parent Orientation…Just
Another Way to Help Our Wonderful Families!
We held our first
parent orientation and have had many positive comments. Despite our
internet connection being flaky, we still managed to give parents a
tremendous amount of information to help guide them through the
year.
Didn’t make
it? No problem! Just log into our team website, click on the Swim
Info tab, then on the Parent Survival Guide. And although you
won’t get to hear me crack jokes along the way…it
gives a very detailed accounting of the topics covered at
orientation!
More ways for PACK
to help our families!
