Newsletter April 2018 Poland Swim Club, Inc. * PO Box 5127 * Poland, OH 44514 * www.polandswimclub.com President s Message Who s ready for summer? Right now it looks a lot like winter rather than spring. Sunshine and higher temperatures will be here before you know it. The PSC officers are ready to get this season started! I d like to take a moment to say thank you to our exiting board member and coaches, Kim Brant, Anthony Lattanzio, Rocky Jeswald, and Lauren Pepperney. Thank you all for everything you ve done for our swim club. You guys will be missed! Vicky Kindinis will be taking over our membership duties, and Bob OBruba be taking over landscaping and maintenance at the club. As many of you know, Poland hosted the YSL League Championships last July. It was a huge success! We did receive numerous compliments and thank you s from other swim clubs regarding how smoothly everything ran. A huge thanks goes out to everyone who helped make this event happen. We couldn t have done it without you! As successful as champs was for our club that s not to say we didn t have Welcome to Summer 2018!! some hurdles to overcome. The pool pump did fail toward the end of the summer which forced us to close for a few days. Thankfully Morrone Mechanical was there to help get it fixed and get our pool back opened. I am so happy to see that our swim and tennis team is expanding. It s awesome to watch all the young swimmers and tennis players compete! If you haven t yet, please consider signing up for one of our teams or both. Check out the newsletter for registration details. Our social calendar was pretty full last summer. S'mores galore made a triumphant return as well as the family movie night. Both of events were well attended. We did host a new event, an adult only social night, The PSC Cook Off. Each member prepared their best dish and brought it to share with those in attendance. We also had a live band that helped make this night one to remember. If you haven t been able to make it to any of the special events, take a look in the newsletter. We already have the dates set. We d love to see you there! We are always trying to improve the look of the club. We purchased the rest of the lounge chairs and umbrellas. We did buy some soccer nets, as well as new tennis nets, for the kids enjoyment. We did add a gas grill in the main pavilion. It can be used anytime, so bring the hot dogs and hamburgers and fire it up. I d like to see our Poland Swim Club family grow. We have wonderful things to offer our members. Go ahead and start making plans to attend our various family events and book your babysitters now for our adult only cook off. Let s have some fun this summer!
