Southern Vermont Swim League Meet, Saturday, July 25th

As you may already know, our League meet is July 25th. For those of you new to the team, this is a meet for all the teams in the Southern Vermont Swim League (SVSL). All Woodstock swimmers are eligible to attend this meet. The 10 and Under Swimmers attend a morning session. Warm-ups for the 10 and Unders will begin sometime after 7:45am and the session will begin at 9am. The 11 and Over Swimmers attend the afternoon session, with warm-ups beginning around noon for a 1:30pm start time.

Medals are awarded for first through sixth place relays and first through eight place for individuals. Ribbons are awarded for seventh through tenth places for relays and ninth through twentieth for individuals. We strongly encourage all swimmers to attend this meet, as it is one of the culminating events of the season.

Here is a list of swimmers who will be entered into the SVSL meet in Rutland based on the Meet Attendance check lists. If your swimmer's name is not on this list, it is because we did not receive a check-off sheet or because you indicated "no" or "maybe" on the form. Please inform the coaches no later than 2:30pm on July 22nd if we need to add or remove a swimmer from this list. If your swimmer has signed up for the meet, but does not attend, the family will need to pay a $15 meet fee.

Update 7/7/09

Well, you win some, and you lose some. While the weather was chilly, the thunderstorms ominously predicted certainly didn't make an appearance as early as we thought. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this unpredictable summer season! We'll let you know as soon as possible the new date for the rescheduled Quechee meet.

Thank you again for your patience, and we'll see everyone at practice tomorrow!

Betsy will be our lifeguard during the swim and Nicola will bring a kayak for additional safety. Parent chaperones are also welcome. Information/permission sheets will be available to swimmers next week. Here's a photo from the Fourth Annual Distance Swim...lots of fun!

Updated Meet Check Off Sheets

I neglected to include the Manchester Meet on our Meet Check Off lists. New sheets will be distributed at practices and will be posted on the WST bulletin board near the Lifeguard Office. If you have already submitted a sheet, we'll be in touch to find out if your swimmer can attend.

I apologize for the inconvenience.
