CONGRATULATIONS WST

Hi All

Congratulations to the WST State Team, who achieved third place in Division III. Awards were organized today by Ashley and are ready for pick up in the Rec. office. ALL SWIMMERS who participated in States earned some kind of award, so make sure to collect your hard earned goodies! Also, swimmers may find ribbons from earlier in the season, as well as certificates and top times reports that were handed out at the Picnic. Please stop by!

Don't forget...Gail still has some photo order forms also. There are proofs and many of them look great. If you want photos, you'll need the form ASAP.

Thank you again to all the volunteers and swimmers for a successful and enjoyable season. We'll be in touch next spring.

All the best,
Nicola, Ashley, and Sophie

10 and Under Swimmers

7:50-8:10 Warm-Up

Woodstock: Lanes 3,4

Please arrive by 7:30. Parking can get tricky with so many participants.

We can anticipate a finish time of roughly 11:30am (give or take a few minutes) for the first session.

11 and Over Swimmers will swim in the second session.

11:30-11:50 Warm-Up

Woodstock: Lanes 1,2,3

Please arrive by 11:15.

The second session is usually significantly longer than the first session. I would expect the meet to run until around 4:30pm or 5:00pm. If anyone has a better time estimate, please feel free to email me, and I'll update the time.

WE NEED TO PROVIDE at least 2 OFFICIALS PER SESSION and 3 TIMERS PER SESSION. Volunteers should contact Patti Beda.

The Swim Team pays the $12 entry fee for swimmers who attend this meet. However, swimmers who indicated they would attend, but do not swim will need to pay the $12 fee per swimmer.

There will be parking at White's Pool and aditional parking available behind the Mobil Station and Midway Diner on Rt. 7.

Please feel free to call or email if you have any questions.
