All snack items are NEEDED at

you are always welcome to bring any food item that a swimmer
may enjoy.
Insulated Cups Needed ( 8 oz
at Costco)
Lids Needed (8 oz lids found a
Smart & Final)
Ideas for Food Items to Bring
in:
fruit (cuties,
strawberries)
pop
tarts
cup of
noodles
muffins / rolls

homemade soup has been a big hit!)

PARENT HELP NEEDED at HOT
CHOCOLATE NIGHT!
We are still in need of parent help for Hot Chocolate
Night. Marlene Clement has been a great help in coordinating this
fun event for our kids, but she cannot set up, serve food and clean
up by herself. She needs your help to keep this event going for our
kids. Did you know Thursday is one of our highest attended practice
days? Let keep this event going, so our swimmers have a little
something to look forward to on Thursday nights. It takes a village
to raise a child.
