Hello all,

Believe it or not swim team practice starts TOMORROW!!  This message will be mostly bulleted but if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

1.  The first group practice begins tomorrow @ 6pm at the EMBRY HILLS pool.  Just a reminder the practice location has changed for the first two weeks.  Do not go to the Westhampton pool...we will not be there.

2.  The group practices are flexible.  If you are unsure what group your child would best fit into try them out.  Also feel free to change at any time.  Just a reminder, 6-6:30 is the beginner group.  These are the kids that can swim a lap or two unassisted.  6:30-7:15 is intermediate group.  They can swim several laps unassisted.  7:15-8:00 is the advanced group.  

3.  Summer swim team wouldn't be summer swim team without weather issues.  It looks like Monday and Tuesday the weather forecast is "iffy".  We will swim in light rain, but will not swim in thunder and lightning.  Be sure you are linked up with the swimtopia app or your email as that is where the "alerts" come when practice is cancelled for inclement weather.  I will be sending out a test alert this evening, so if you don't get it then something has gone wrong. 

4.  Speaking of Swimtopia, get familiar with the swimtopia app (if you're not already).  This is where the meet information is posted and where you sign up for meets.

5.  Our coaches are the same as last year.  We have Maddie Doesburg as the head coach with Kate, Ace, Ella, & Seda as assistant coaches.  They are all great and we are happy to have them.

6.  Finally, typically there can be a lot of anxiety right before a summer swim season.  There is a lot of moving parts and different things going on.  If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.  We are happy to help!!
