PARENT HELP NEEDED at HOT
CHOCOLATE NIGHT!
We are always in need of parent help for Hot Chocolate
Nights. 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. Sign up sheets are available at the
pool. Please sign up to help set up
(4-5pm), serve food (6-6:45pm or
7:15-7:45pm), or clean up (7:15-7:45pm).
Marlene needs your help to keep this event going for our kids. Did
you know Thursday is one of our highest attended practice days?
Lets keep this event going, so our swimmers have a little something
to look forward to on these cold Thursday nights. It takes a
village to raise a child.
