MEET AVAILABILITY The Swim Meet Attendance sheets are now starting to be posted for the upcoming swim meets. Please complete the attendance sheet by Tuesday evening before each meet to let the Coach know if you can NOT attend the meet or if you have to leave EARLY. This helps the coach pick the events each swimmer will be swimming at the meet. If you find out at the last minute (after Tuesday night up to Saturday morning) that you cannot attend the meet, then let the Coach know or phone a friend to tell the computer person at the meet.

MEET #4 RESULTS WE WON with 384 vs 263. What a wonderful meet you guys put on. It was close the whole meet long, and you kept it up till the very end. We are all proud of you!!
DIVISIONALS Divisionals is around the corner, and the league is working hard to ensure that it goes out seamlessly. IMPORTANT REQUESTS: Attendance You MUST let both Coach and Deborah know if you are NOT attending Divisionals or if you are leaving early. They need to place swimmers in events and relays. This will help us run the meet more efficiently. Please contact them both AS SOON As POSSIBLE. Thank you!! First Responder Parents, are any of you trained/certified as a first responder? We need a parent volunteer for this position for Divisionals. Please let us know if you are trained. Thank you!!
DON’T FORGET TO CHECK YOUR FAMILY FOLDERS FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION
END OF YEAR PARTY AND MORE… Have you checked the pool bulletin board lately? Read the weekly newsletter? Checked out the website? Well!

We need everyone to pitch in and volunteer, in order to make the event enjoyable for EVERYONE. Please contact a Board Member if you can help with planning.
Pajama day practice on Friday, June 13: come in your pajamas AND bathing suit, and get a donut and juice after practice.

POSTING RESULTS Per NWAL rules for 2014, results cannot be displayed for public access. If you are a CBST team member, you can request an email copy of a particular meet’s results from all NWAL meets are available at the NWAL-assigned site. Scores are available to the public, but individual results require account registration on that site. To register, go to the NWAL CBST site, log in using the information that was emailed to you. See a board member if you don’t remember. Once you are logged in, you can see results in one of two ways. You can click the results tab to see any result or you can go to the parents under the actions tab and see your swimmers results. Results are only available AFTER a score has been posted. The Northwest Aquatic League (NWAL) sanctions the Concord Bridge Swim Team. NWAL can be found at www.nwal.org. There is a lot of information on the website about training for officials, invitational meets, rules, etc. Check it out
BOARD OF DIRECTORS NOMINATIONS The CBST Board Members are volunteers, just like all parents of swimmers on the team. The CBST Board works off and on throughout the year to plan each season. If you are interested in nominating yourself and/or a parent that you feel would be a great addition, please notify a sitting Board Member with your nomination.
VOLUNTEER DEPOSITS If you plan on receiving your initial $175 volunteer deposit, your family must have worked the required time. It takes MANY hours to run a swim meet. We have several families who are always helping, but they are getting tired. Remember, no helpers, no team, and NO REFUND. Family hours for the first two meets have been counted and were sent out last week. Please make sure you know where your family stands with hours.
SWIM LESSONS If you are interested in swim or stroke lessons, please contact Jr. Coach Glenn for scheduling. Additional charges apply.

INVITATIONALS Invitational meets are special meets held during the month of June/July that are hosted by various swim clubs. In order to attend one of these meets, a swimmer must have a time in an event that meets the qualification of the club hosting the meet. As in the past, the CBST has again chosen to attend the following meets this year:
PENTATHATLON Good luck swimmers!!
RED, WHITE AND BLUE June 27 – 29, 2014 @ Klein Forest High School, 11400 Misty Valley Dr,, Houston, TX 77066 Registration deadline June 21 @ Divisionals.
PONDEROSA June 28 – 29, 2014 @ Klein Oak High School, 22603 Northcrest Dr., Spring, TX 77389 Registration deadline June 21 @ Divisionals. You will need to make registration signup and payment by the end of each meet date specified or you will be unable to attend the Invitational meet your swimmer qualifies for. See either Angela Bueglar or Misty Villarreal. If you are signed up, but have not paid, you will not swim!
LOST AND FOUND There are many items starting to accumulate in our Lost & Found! Please check this box if you are missing anything. Don’t forget to label your belongings so they can be returned to their rightful owner. All usable items remaining in Lost & Found at the end of the season will be donated to Bear Creek Assistance Ministries.
NAUGHTY CORNER I’m very sad to announce that several swimmers’ areas were left in very bad shape with trash. Thank you parents for cleaning up the mess that swimmers should’ve cleaned up themselves.
