Hello Waves families!

We had a great first week of the 2017 season!! Thanks to all the parents for being at practiceson time! If you are missing practice, we do not need to be notified in advance. Unlike some teams that hold closed practices, we welcome parents to stay at the pool. We would like to remind you, however, to please keep your distance from the pool, the coaches and the swimmers while practices are in session (unless it’s an emergency). We would like to minimize distractions for the coaches, so they can focus on their work and safety of the swimmers. If you have a concern, please see a coach or the coordinator after the practice is over. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Weather: Thunderstorms are forecasted for almost every day this week. We practice rain or shine, and will cancel if thunder or lightning is present. Please check your email and our website for practice cancelations.

Fins: We will begin using fins this week. Please write your child’s name on each fin!

Caps: Swim caps have arrived and will be distributed to those who ordered them.
