Dear Penguins and Parents:
Here are some important reminders before this busy weekend:
OAKTREE MEET ON SATURDAY
Swimmers need to check in with the coaches by 7:30 am at Oatkree. Please check the Oaktree meet page on the website for a map and special notes about where to park and set up your EZ-Ups. Volunteer assignments and meet entries have also been posted to the website.
Last year Oaktree beat LPAC by less than one point, so we’re hoping this year we can show them our PENGUIN POWER and end the season with a victory over the Sharks!
OVERNIGHTER
The Overnighter starts at 6:00 pm on Saturday; please do not arrive any earlier to start setting up, even if you are an Association member. If you have not already turned in your form, it’s not too late; just bring your form and $15 to the Oaktree meet.
This year, all cardboard boats should be staged in the tennis court area. We will have ballots available for you to vote for your favorite boat designs before the races begin. Parents are encouraged to stay and watch the races. We ask that you please take your boats (or whatever is left of them) home afterwards. We don’t have enough space in the dumpster for all the soggy wreckage!
Pick-up time is 8:00 am on Sunday morning. Parents, when you check in at Oaktree, please sign up to help serve breakfast and/or clean up on Sunday morning so the exhausted board members and their spouses can go home and get some sleep!
TURN IN YOUR BANQUET FORMS
Our team awards banquet will be on Sunday, July 20 at 4:30 pm. Dinner will be catered by Buca di Beppo. Dinner is free for all swimmers, but we do need you to fill out a form to reserve your meal(s). Additional meals are available at $8 for adults and $5 for kids 12 and under. Visit the Banquet page of the website to download the order form and get more details. Please turn in your order forms no later than next Wednesday, July 16.
NO OTHER TEAM CAPS
Please note that swimmers are not allowed to wear year-round or high school team caps during LPAC swim meets. They can be DQd for this infraction, so please remember to bring your LPAC or other plain cap to all meets, including Champs!
SWIM-A-THON PLEDGES ARE DUE!
All Swim-a-Thon pledges must be turned in by tomorrow (7/12) to be eligible for prizes. All donations are tax-deductible. We appreciate your support of LPAC!
SPIRIT WEEK
Next week is the last week of practices, which we call LPAC Spirit Week. For extra fun, we have dress-up themes each day and special snacks too. Monday will be “Good Morning Monday” — just roll out of bed and come to practice in your PJs. There will be special prizes for best bed-head!
We’ll have more details about the rest of the week coming soon…
GO PENGUINS!!
