Good Morning Gators!

Welcome to the last two weeks of craaaazzyyyy - final home meet, team pictures, tie dye event, team breakfast, awards meet, board nominations, champs meet and then our banquet. This is the culmination of summer swim and once July 31st hits you may be rocking in a corner. It's for the kids, it's for the kids, it's for the kids....and we love it too. We will be sending communications about these events this week, so check those emails and Facebook posts. 

There are some open volunteer slots for tomorrow. This is your final opportunity to make sure you have the correct number of volunteer shifts before we assess fees. We hate to do it, but you did acknowledge this requirement when you registered. If you have one swimmer you should have a point value of five and if you have two or more swimmers you should have a point value of 6. I would like to take a moment to thank the Eichholz, Ainsley, Hinnant, Hartig, Farah, Kantor and Ericsson families for going above and beyond their volunteer requirements this year to help us fill in gaps. 

THANK YOU!
