Dear
OBX Swimmers and Parents,
I am
writing to let you know that Assistant Coach Matt Campion resigned from our
staff effective March 1st. He wanted to finish out the short course
season before pursuing other interests by making sure his Bronze swimmers were
ready to go for the short course championship meet. Matt has been committed to his swimmers and
this team and for that we are very grateful. He now has plans to prepare for a
busy lifeguarding season followed by a return to life as a full-time student.
Substitute teaching has been such a joy for him that he’s decided to get his
teaching degree.
While I
have only had a short time to get to know Matt, he clearly has an enthusiasm
for swimming that is hard to find. He has gotten many a swimmer excited about
this sport and has personally encouraged more than 10 of our current swimmers
to graduate from Porpoise Club into year round swimming as OBX Sharks. His energy and devotion to our team will be
missed.
Please
join me in thanking Coach Matt for everything he has done for the OBX Sharks
and in wishing him much success in his future endeavors.
Coach
David Jones
