Hello Parents!

After today's first day of "official practice,"we would like to say that we are so happy with the turn out so early in the season. We know that this summer will fly by. Luke Plese is going to get white board to keep out at the pool where we can post announcements, so keep your eyes out for that. Another reminder is that our meet entries are due for the Coppell meet tomorrow, Tuesday. Please get those to us tomorrow at practice. If you need assistance filling out the form check with a coach or a returning swimmer's parent.

We are aware that there has been some confusion about practice times. The "older group" comes in at 7:00 a.m. and the "younger group" comes in at 7:30 a.m. We know that some families have conflicts that cause them to come at different times, just let the coaches know and we will work something out. Again, if you have questions please ask.

Lastly one of the ways that we disperse information to families on deck is a file box that will be out daily. The box contains tabs, each labeled with your swimmer's name. We will put information in those folders. Once we get a final count for all the new kids on the team, we will work on updating the box and this will be completed early next week. It will be important for your family to check the box regularly for important team information.

Do not hesitate to ask us any questions and thank you for your patience as we get these summer team started!

We are looking forward to an exciting summer!

Coach Elena and Coach Brittany
