Hello and Happy Friday!

I wanted to send a quick email to say a HUGE congratulations to all of our swimmers for an awesome meet last night. It is hard to believe, but we had every single swimmer in attendance. I think that is a first for me as a coach of 26 years! 

If you took any pictures or video last night please add them to this Google Folder.

A few announcements for the next couple of weeks:
1. I am attaching the meet results. We had 51 time drops last night and more than half of our swimmers swim events for the very first time. We are so proud of everyone for working so hard. At this level it is all about competing with yourself and seeing that progress from meet to meet is exactly what we are looking for.

I want to highlight a few who dropped SIGNIFICANT time (4 seconds or more!)!

2. Next week we will have practice on Monday and Thursday. 

3. Our next meet is Tuesday, November 4th at Wesleyan in Norcross. This is Election Day so it is a digital day for school. Meet information will come out next week. You can go in and declare your swimmer and make event selections. Please keep in mind that this is NOT a guarantee that your swimmer will be in the events they choose. I do my best to be sure each swimmer gets at least one event that they want but we do have a limited number of entries per event and sometimes we need to put them where we NEED them and not where they want to be.

4. We have a few lost and found items from last night. We had a pair of black sweatpants, a pair of girls shorts, a few Wildcat tshirts, a giant black water bottle, and a few other things. Coach Mahoney will be bringing them with her on Monday.

That is all that I have for you at the moment. If anything new comes up, I will let you know. Thank you again for an amazing first swim meet! Lets keep working hard!

Have a great weekend!
Coach Parker, Coach Kailyn & Coach Mahoney
