Call Ann McKee with questions, or email annmckee2720@msn.com. Wedge vs. Wood Meet Tuesday, June 22 Our first meet of the season is an intra-squad event. This meet gives new swimmers and volunteers an opportunity to learn the ropes and ask questions, and gives veterans a chance to test their block starts, check out their stopwatches, and fire up the barbecues. It is a fun way to start off the season! Volunteers The committee chairs are busy filling the many jobs for the upcoming swim meets. Even if you have turned in your volunteer form, look for the sign-up sheets on the bulletin board for concessions, ribbons and other committees. It is a lot easier for the committee chairs to have volunteers sign up for a shift than to call every individual to schedule. If you did not receive a form please pick up a copy in the pool office. Thanks! Questions about swim team? Call Christi Seymour or e-mail Christi.Seymour@earthlink.net. - Swim Team Committee Adult Swim Team Leave your excuses and extra clothes in the locker room - join us in the deep end on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 8-9 PM beginning June 21. Swimmers of all abilities and ages (over 18) are welcome.
