First Day of Practice!


Hi WST Families!

We are so excited to have everyone swimming with us this summer!  Our first day of practice was an absolute success!  Our returning swimmers were on the ball and excited to get back in the pool which was very encouraging to see.  We want to offer a special welcome to our new swimmers who did an excellent job on their first day! This summer looks like it’s shaping up to be a great one.  There are a few things for parents to keep in mind as they’re sending kids to practice though.  The first is sunscreen!  Especially early in the year swimmers are going to be very prone to burns, so please make sure that your swimmers have plenty of protection while they’re at practice.  The second is water!  Because swimmers are surrounded by water during workouts they often forget that they actually are exercising, sweating, and in need of fluid replenishment, so please make sure your child has a water bottle from which to drink during and after practice.  Again, welcome to our new swimmers and welcome back to our returners!

Thanks so much!
Nicola, Maddie, and Sam
