Good evening, Everyone!
It looks like we might have some clear weather this week, so we are really looking forward to getting some good work in with all of our swimmers. With that said, it is summer time, and we ask that swimmers be flexible should any storms arise this week.
As a reminder, we will change schedules after this week starting on June 11, with our 9-10 and 11-12 year olds practicing from 7:30am-8:30am, and our 13-18 year olds swimming from 8:30am-10am. Our 8 and Unders will swim from 5:15pm-6:00pm. All practices are Monday-Friday unless otherwise announced.
If you are interested in getting a shirt for the summer, please be sure to get your order in by Friday afternoon at the latest. Likewise, if you are interested in a silicone swim cap, please let me know so I can get numbers in line to place an order.
We have several swimmers participating in graduation celebrations this weekend, and we want to wish them congratulations and all the best! Please take a moment to congratulate our seniors when you see them on deck this week. We are very proud of all they have accomplished!
In addition to the best wishes to our upcoming grads, I have a two bits of information to share with everyone. First, I have recently accepted a full-time position with the Town of Valdese Recreation Department as the new Aquatics and Fitness Supervisor. I will be continuing in my coaching duties with the team, as well as assuming several new roles at the pool and fitness center. I am really looking forward to the new opportunities this provides the community, myself, and family. Second, as a result of this transition, I will be attending a day-long training in Asheville on Friday, June 15th. We will have a long weekend with no practice that Friday.
