IMPORTANT- July 9 Meet to Be Held at Home in Woodstock; Please Re-Sign Up

The Saturday, July 9 meet originally scheduled to be held away in Rutland has been CHANGED and we will be hosting the meet at home.

It will probably begin around 10 a.m. with warm-ups an hour prior.

PLEASE RE-SIGN UP FOR THIS MEET REGARDLESS OF IF YOU CAN ATTEND OR NOT.

Please respond to the Doodle Poll yes/no for attendance: http://doodle.com/poll/utxwyq68fsn3yqqt.  

The Doodle Poll is the ONLY info we will use to enter swimmers for this specific meet (we will disregard the sign up sheets), so let us know YES or NO so we know we aren't missing anyone.  Please use the poll even if you already indicated yes/no on the physical sheet of paper.

Thanks!

Things you may want to bring:
-  sunscreen (put it on before you even get to the pool to save time!)

Last Chance to Order a Team Suit for Summer 2016

Coach Maddie will be sending more information related to the start of the season and practices starting next week but for now: the final SUIT ORDER will go in on Friday morning, and the sample suits for trying on will be sent back to the vendor.  If you still want to order but haven't yet, stop by the Rec before Friday to place your order. Thanks.
