Hi, Tomahawks!

Here’s the schedule for the week:

• Monday (regular schedule):
  • 8:15-9:00 - 8u
  • 9:00-10:00 - 9-10
  • 10:00-11:00 - 11up
• Tuesday - NO MORNING PRACTICE!
  • MEET DAY!**
  • PHOTO DAY!**
• Wednesday (regular schedule):
  • 8:15-9:00 - 8u
  • 9:00-10:00 - 9-10
  • 10:00-11:00 - 11up
  • First evening practice - 7:00-8:00 pm for all team
• Thursday (regular schedule):
  • 8:15-9:00 - 8u
  • 9:00-10:00 - 9-10
  • 10:00-11:00 - 11up
• Friday - I’d like to propose a change. We have so many 8u that I think it’s best fundamentally and developmentally for them to have their own practice. We do not have as many 9up. This Friday, let’s do 8u - 9:00-10:00 am and 9up - 10:00-11:00 am. As coaches, we are noticing that the 8u need more individualized attention than our older swimmers, so we think this change will be best in the long run!

**Tuesday, June 9th - Swim Meet vs. Kingston @ 6:00 pm! This is also photo day! If you signed up for individual photos, please arrive at your assigned time. There are 4 spots left and you can sign up for those here. The team photo will take place at 4:30 pm, so please be sure to arrive by 4:25 pm. Our warmups will be from 5:00-5:30 pm. Please wear your team suit, team cap, and your team shirt! If you have not yet gotten caps or shirts, you can get them at practice Monday or at the meet. Heat sheet is attached. Where we lack in older kids, they lack in younger kids. It’s going to be a very close meet, so let's bring our best!

Jobs still needed for Kingston meet:

• 1st Half 11up Girl Roundup
• 2nd Half 9-10 Boys Roundup
• Whole Meet - Head Timer
• Whole Meet - 1 jump judge (relays only)
• 2nd Half - 2 Stroke & Turn
• 2nd Half - 1 timer

The team store is now closed but please get a kickboard, fins, and a pull buoy from Amazon or Swim & Tri. We used them all quite a bit this last week and it’s really helpful developmentally!

Deadline to declare for the meet on 6/15 vs Fox Den is this Wednesday, 6/10. Anyone undeclared will not be entered into the meet. More info on that meet to come as I receive it (this includes worker positions).

I think that’s it for now. If I forgot anything or you have any questions, please reach out!
