Congrats on another big win over Martin's Landing! We had a lot of personal best times and a few new records! I am looking forward to our next meet at Country Club of the South. Please remember to RSVP online. Last week in practice we focused on turns, and I saw a lot of improvements in technique at the meet. This week we will working on building endurance and continuing to improve our dives. We had a lot of success with Waffle Wednesday last week and want to do it again this week! If you would like to help out by bringing fruit, batter, or toppings, please contact me!

Swimmer Tip of the Week Sorry boys, this tip is for the girls! Swim caps are a really great invention that help keep hair out of your face. I've noticed a lot of girls' hair getting in their face while swimming, especially when turning their head to the side to breathe. Please encourage your child to wear a swim cap, or at least put her hair in a ponytail during practice to avoid this problem!
