Dear VJO Swimmers and Parents,
Great job at our meet this weekend swimmers! We had many
new time standards achieved including some first time ever JO
qualifying times. Unfortunately we do not yet have the results as
there were some computer problems during the meet. Another
email will be sent out as soon as we receive the final
results.
Senior and Age Groupers:We would
like to thank the Senior and Age Group for helping out and buddying
up with our beginner and younger swimmers. You did a terrific
job helping out the younger ones and we thank you for all your
help. We would also like to give a big thank you to those swimmers
that were volunteering.
Parents: Thank you for all
your help and support putting on the meet this weekend.
Parent volunteers are what make our VJO meets possible.
