Please see Coach Tanner or one of his
assistants if you feel your
children might benefit from private lessons from them (you may, of course,
seek an outside coach). Also, if they're swimming
beyond their age-classified peers, please feel free to move them to the
next age group by submitting a request in writing. Finally, please do not wear your team swimsuits to
practice; the team swimsuits are meant for the meets only.
A note about the lane lines:
please do not swim over them, sit on them, or do anything that might
otherwise damage them. We would be responsible for replacing any that get
broken, and they run about a few thousand dollars each (!).
Here's the latest
meet
schedule for 2010 as well as essential information
for meet days. Here also is the
grouping of
swimmers for the 2010 practices.
Happy swimming!
