Tomorrow, Monday, April 29th practice begins! Here are a few reminders as we begin our first week of the swim team season:
- Practices start tomorrow (Monday, April 29), with age group times as follows:
- 8 & under: 5:30-6:15 pm
- 9-11: 6:15-7:00 pm
- 12-14: 7:00-8:00 pm
- High school: 8:00-9:00 pm
- Suits and merchandise will be sold this Thursday and Friday ( May 2 and May 3). Please plan to come before your regular practice time to try on suits and check out the merchandise order form. (It’s much easier to do that before the kids get wet.) And don’t forget your checkbook! All swimmers are required to have a team suit or a plain black suit for meets and Picture Day. If you know your swimmer’s size please use this link now to order their new team suit. https://illusionsactivewear.com/teams/lpac-penguins/
- If you have a team suit or LPAC gear from last year that your swimmer has outgrown, please consider donating. Have your swimmer bring to practice this week. Jennie Anderson will collect from the coaches and have available for swimmers needing a larger or smaller suit.
- If you are interested in being a Stroke and Turn Judge this year, plan to attend the Stroke & Turn Judging Clinic on Saturday, May 11 at the Montevideo Clubhouse.
- Penguin Madness is on Friday, May 17 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm. Please follow the link and send an email if you plan on attending. https://swimlpac.org/events/penguin-madness/
- You should have received an email on March 31 from volunteers@swimlpac.org asking if you would like to return to the same position this season. If you did not receive this email please send your contact information to the email volunteers@swimlpac.org. Remember that in addition to your regular shift each family is asked to sign up for at least one clean-up shift after a home meet.
- Just a reminder: If you need to relay any specific information to the coaches, please send email to coaches@swimlpac.org.
- If you have any questions about special events or general team information, you can send an email to info@swimlpac.org.
Dig out and dust off those caps and goggles, and we’ll see you tomorrow!
