I hope everyone is off to a great week! Here are swim team updates for the week.

1. Practices. There WILL be practice on Thursday, July 4th. There will NOT be practice on Friday, July 5th.

2. Saturday's Ulmstead-Only Meet & Ducky Hour(s)! We have lots of fun planned for Saturday's meet and afterwards from 8am - 2pm! Here's the plan:

a. Arrive by 7:55 am for the 8:00am full team picture - thanks to Elizabeth Manicchia from Branch Out Photography. 

b. Warm-ups will follow the team picture.

c. This meet gives swimmers a "splash" toward the required 2 to qualify for a medal meet - and provides an opportunity to improve times at our home pool just with teammates. By Tuesday at 4pm, please declare if your swimmer(s) is or is not swimming on Saturday.

There will be plenty of food concessions so come hungry - cash and PayPal will be accepted. Thanks to Maureen Coelho and her team for feeding us!

Cory/Shubhanghi/Molly will send out the volunteer roles.

d. Ducky Hour(s) 12:00 - 2:00 pm. It's ducky time! We will have ducky games, crafts, and sundaes. Thanks to Lindsey O'Dea and Jaime John and their team for planning this annual fun tradition!

3. Medal Meets. Please see the email Liz Norton sent on Sunday at 1:25pm. Complete the Google form by 8am on Sunday, July 14 to indicate which medal meet your swimmer(s) will participate in - if they are not participating, the form has to be submitted noting that.

Thank you to our gold sponsors –The Orthopedic Specialty Hospital at Mercy and JP & Beth Rue and the Donut Shack - and bronze sponsor Reinheimer Orthodontics!

Go Ducks! See you at 8:00 am on Saturday!
