Short
Course season for 2006-2007
Welcome to those
returning and the new members of
Lakeside
for 2006 2007
season.
We are once
again coming off a very strong year of individual and team
performances for
Lakeside
. We were well represented in our
State, the Country and through out the World this past year and
have look forward to the coming year.
In for the 2006
and 2007 season, there will be a modest monthly dues increase. For
the month of September you will be invoiced at last year’s
rate. Beginning in October the monthly fees will be increase by
$7.50 a swimmer. It has been over 3 years since we have had a rate
increase and with the continuing increase in operating cost we want
to make sure the team remains financially stable and capable of
delivering the quality program but also continuing to find ways to
improve. In addition we will not have the fund raising activities
during the year. We still plan to have a parent’s party but
will not be selling the raffle tickets and having the auction. It
has been very successful in the past but is a lot of work for many
parents.
The annual
parent meeting will be on September 21 this year. It will once
again be held at the
Clifton
Center
. It will begin at
6:00
PM
. Also at this meeting we will want
to collect the annual
Parent Contract,
Family Bio Sheet,
Medical
Release Form, and
other needed paper work. These can be found on the web
site.
The Meet
Schedule and Practice Schedule can be found on the Team
website, www.Lakesideseahawks.org.
The Team also
has a Yahoo Group Mailing List please sign-up for this, it is used
as a good forum for communication. Directions to sign-up can be
found on the website under Team News.
During the
coming year, the coaches are again looking for ways to improve the
training and performance. This year we will be looking to increase
the use of the video systems and systems we have purchased over the
past few years and have recently added too. This will require
training and time. We will discuss this more at the group coaches /
parent meetings.
We also want to
remind parents and swimmers that the team has a Physical
Therapist that
does come to MTM weekly and is available to discuss any concerns.
If swimmers want to discuss this please let their coach know so we
can set up visits.
Thank
you,
Bob Leasure, President of the Board
