Swimmers of the Meet Golden Bear and B Meet!

Hi Swimmers and Parents,

We wanted to Congratulate all the swimmers on a great job at the Golden Bear meet and B meet!  Everyone did a fabulous job, especially if it was your first meet, and we had huge time drops!  We are so proud of all the swimmers!!!!

Keep getting to as many practice each week as you can.  Make sure to sign up for the remaining meets in January and February so you don't miss the deadlines.  We will be passing out stars for best times and smiley faces for the swimmers of the meet.

Please have the kids bring their bag tags to their next practice.

There is no practice next Thursday-26th, Thanksgiving Day.  The Thursday Breakers group will have practice on Tuesday, Nov. 24th with the other Breaker group from 4-5 p.m. at the CC.
