Welcome to December and Week 12!
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We had many visitors from Virginia and North Carolina while practicing over the holidays. I will even get a chance to see some of them compete over the next couple weeks at the upcoming meets. It is always fun for coaches and our swimmers to meet others who compete in the same sport. We wish them a safe trip home and hope they may return to practice with us on another visit.
I am in the process of entering those of you who signed up for the upcoming meets. Check your folders for your events and amounts due. We want to thank the Roach family for generously volunteering their home to host our Christmas party on Friday, December 16th. Look for the invitation in your folder for details.
