Place - Candler
Volunteer sign up sheet will be posted on
Monday at Candler. Please sign up to bring
stuff.
Every child needs to bring a wrapped up $5.00
gift to play the Santa game. A
gift certificate would
work really well. That way we don't have
to worry about boy/girl stuff that much.
TECHNIQUE FOR THE WEEK Excellent job to all swimmers who went to Reindeer Meet. Many of you had some really break through swims! Since we do not have a meet until the January Jubilee we will really be getting back to a lot of Stroke Technique Work. Good listening and concentration in practice for the next few weeks can really help everyone's swimming. Fall States swimmers this week will focus on starts, turns, finishes, and relay starts. All fall states swimmers need to stay healthy, get rested and drink plenty of fluids so you are ready to rock n' roll at the meet. I am really looking forward to some good swims this weekend. I am planning on doing some video taping of all swimmers once again over the Christmas break. There will be a sign-up sheet and more information on video taping in next week's newsletter. See you all at practice Coach Brian |
