2009 Parent Board Positions

Have you ever wondered how all the activities of the swim season get accomplished? Well we owe a lot of thanks to our coaches who keep us on track, but we also have a wonderful parent board that help organize and plan all the events of the season. It is not only a good way to get to know other parents better, but you also get the inside track on how the team is doing and get input in the events of the season. This group is vital to handle all the social and team events so that the coaches have more time to dedicate to actually coaching.

Things we accomplished this year: Team t-shirts, team pictures, food donation for all swim meets for Hospitality rooms, manning two concession stands, distributing ribbons for the Richardson meets, Pep Rally, Ice Cream social, Lap-a-thon, Spaghetti dinner, Banquet, coaches appreciation and two successful swim meets. Wow, that is a lot in 2 months!

It is time to find a new board for next year. So if you are interested in any of these position please let Kristen Falies know via e-mail by July 30th. We need to have the new board names secure by the Team Banquet where the new board will be announced.

We have great parent participation on the Rapids and we now need some of you great volunteers to step up and help us out on the board. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to ask any current board members.
