Great swimming on Saturday! LPAC got their first win of the season and defeated the Silver Creek Sharks with a score of 109.9(Sharks) to…. (drumroll, please) 123.9(LPAC). Your penguins should be very proud of themselves. Way to Go Penguins!

A great big thank you to all of the parents who were ready to do a parent relay at our meet. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to have a parent relay at our Silver Creek meet. Hopefully next meet we can squeeze one in.

Rides:
Swimmers will need to be driven to and from LaserMaxx for this social event.  Please reach out to fellow middle school penguins to arrange carpool groups. If you are able to drive and accommodate rides for other LPAC kids, please reach out to Lynette by June 9 and let her know how many spots you have available!  If we have enough volunteers, Lynette will follow up to offer carpool spots.
An LPAC parent will stay at LaserMaxx during the kids’ two hour play session, all parents are also welcome to stay!  Looking forward to getting our fellow Middle School Penguins together for some summer fun!
Please reach out to Lynette Gill with any questions.
