Parking and Entrance Reminders

We are now entering the pool directly onto the pool deck. Before you came in through the glass front doors. Now you will go to the left of the glass doors and turn right when the building ends. The entrance is the second set of doors on the right. You will go through another set of doors right onto the pool deck.

The school also wants us parking in the parking deck as many times there are activities going on at the school.

We will not begin Wed. swimming until January as our coaches have conflicting schedules right now. The extra hour on Sunday is still being considered to run Oct. - Dec. until it would switch to Wed. Will let you know before the first practice in Oct. I will be sending out a form for you to indicate you interest at this time.

I have goggles for sale at $15.00. The are all the Speedo Vanguisher style (the only style we have found that works well) in Women's, Men's and Jr,.

VERY IMPORTANT 

Please remember to sign your swimmer/s in when you arrive.  I track attendance over time each year to determine when the times are the heaviest so that I can determine if and when I need to add additional pool time. If your swimmers name is not listed, please hand write it at the bottom.  Make sure the time you attended is noted.

First Meet - Spooky Splash - Mark your Calendar

Will have our first meet on Sat. Oct. 26th from 4:30-6:30. Everyone is encouraged to attend. We also have a Halloween costume contest.  We have prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.

As a believer in paying it forward, we will also have an Aquathon in Nov. More to follow later but the money will be distributed to 2 very wonderful organizations.  Autism Speaks and Cancer Research (Exact Org. TBD). Both of the organizations have ties to many of our FutureSwim families so I want to do our best to help.  I hope you will plan to have your child attend and help to pay it forward.

See you at the pool!

Practice Starts This Weekend

I am asking everyone to come to the session of their first choice.  I may have to ask you to adjust based the numbers.  Right now Sundays are pretty full and there is room in Sat.  

Coach Tim Storsteen will be heading everything today with the help from his wife Angie. Serigy is taking his annual trip to visit his family in Russia/Ukraine. For those of you who know Coach Rob, he will be helping out.

Please give payments made out to FutureSwim to Angie.  If you are paying by cash you can give to Angie and she will mark you down as paid.  

For those of you with younger swimmers 3 and 4.  I need to assess your swimmer to see if they are ready for the program.  I would prefer you come Sundaywhen I am there.  Age is not the determining factor, but ability.  I need to see that you child is water safe, unafraid and can keep up with the group. 

Girls need to wear a 1 piece suit and boys a jammer style competition style suit.  I would prefer they not wear the board shorts which are a casual style for fun swimming.

All girls and boys with long hair need to wear swim caps.

Your swimmer will need competitive swim fins.  I have some for sale in limited sizes and can order any other sizes needed.  All swimmers, even the youngest need them.   Don't worry if you don't have for now.  The coaches will wait to use them until the majority of swimmers have them.  

Remember to join the google group as this program builds the email data base from which I send emails.  Go to www.futureswim.com   It does not require a password if you do it from the FutureSwim website.  

Also, if you have not turned in your regisration, please bring your registration with you and give to Angie.  For new people.  Right now, Sat. are available.  I am holding off on Sunday's until we see how things look.  

Thank you all very much and we all look forward to seeing you.
