Important Action Items: All events open in Swimtopia tomorrow at noon. You can sign up for all meets, night practices, and the team party tomorrow at noon. See the link below. Make sure you are signed up for the mock meet by 8 PM tomorrow night, and pre-order pizza if you would like.

1. Only sign up for night practices for the ones your swimmer needs to attend.

2. Little Dolphins cannot attend night practices 

3. You cannot attend night practices if you were at that day's morning practice. 

4. There is a limit of 20 swimmers, therefore night practices will be closed once the limit is reached. 

5. We need to know if your swimmer is attending or not attending all meets. Those who have not responded either way for the mock were emailed tonight. We have over 100 swimmers to coordinate so help us out by responding. 

6. At a minimum, one person attending with a swimmer at the meet is required to sign up for a job. We have 80 swimmers who attend meets just from our team, therefore it's all hands on deck to keep them running smoothly and enjoyable. Unlike other teams, we have not had to resort to fines for families for not meeting their volunteer requirements. In addition, I am more willing to lead the swim team year after year as long as I have help to keep it manageable. I put in a lot of hours for your kids to swim on our team, so please give me just a few hours of your summer to make it work. 

7. If you have a swimmer who is signed up for a meet but you have not signed up for a job, or Mary Kenny will assign you a job so make your own choice! 

8. Use the link below to sign up for events.

9. Each event will close 48 hours before the event because our coaches work with the other team to tetris all the swimmers in events and need that time. Please sign up before the deadline. https://saddlecreekdolphins.swimtopia.com/swim_mee...

This week's Mock/Practice Meet 
1. This is a practice meet and a watered-down version of a regular meet. This is a good meet for new swimmers to see what it looks like. Swimmers will not swim a normal amount of events, and coaches will not put swimmers in swim events they are not ready for. Coaches will get in with swimmers to swim their events if it is needed--they need to see the process!
 2. Arrive 5-5:30 for the practice meet. We will begin at 5:45 PM. As soon as swimmers begin to arrive, coaches will mark their arms with their events. Parents from last year are welcome to help mark arms. An explanation of arm markings will be sent out on Wednesday. 
 3. Order pizza. If you would like to order a pizza for your family, we are pre-selling large Papa John's pizzas for $15.00/pizza. There will be limited pizza sold by the slice at the meet ($2/slice). Click Here: https://saddlecreekdolphins.swimtopia.com/shop Pizza pre-order sales will close Tuesday night at 8 PM.

Schedule this week: 
Monday: Normal Afternoon Practice Times 
Tuesday: Normal Afternoon Practice Times
Wednesday: Mock Meet Arrive between 5-5:30 PM 
Thursday: No practice--Happy Last Day of School! 
Friday: No Practice
 See you on Tuesday, May 30th when practices move to the mornings, and we get to see our Little Dolphins at 8:30 AM!
A separate email will come out on how to hire our coaches for swim lessons in the next couple of days.  Sometimes a one-on-one session with a coach helps some skills click into place.
