A great big thanks to all of the volunteers who helped out at the 8 & Under Meet! We couldn't have done it without you!

TCA MEET CANCELED

The TCA meet for today (6-24-09) has been canceled. They are having problems with the circulation in their pool. We will see you all at practice tomorrow morning.

Volunteers for the 8 & Under Meet

Please email rioranchodesertsharks@gmail.com if you are planning on volunteering at the 8 & Under meet. We would like to get volunteers that DO NOT have children participating in the 8 & Under meet so that the parents of the 8 & Unders can relax and watch their children compete. We need volunteers for the concession stand and the awards (our team is responsible for handing out the awards this year.)

6/24/09- Practice & TCA Meet

We will have practice on Wednesday morning before the TCA meet. It will be a practice just for starts and turns, so the kids don't get worn out.

Maps were handed out for the TCA meet at practice today, they will be available at Tuesday & Wednesday practice. The map is also available here.

Team Suits

Team Suits are NOT in. We received incorrect information, Streamline Swimming has not received our team suits. Please DO NOT drive down to Streamline Swimming to purchase a team suit, as they have yet to arrive.

TCA

We have a meet at TCA on Wednesday, June 24, warm-ups begin at 1:00pm. Below is a map to TCA. Printed maps will also be available at practice.

This practice is cancelled for all swimmers EXCEPT the 8 and unders. This is to give our 8 and Unders extra practice for their big meet on Saturday.

Anklets

Our team has anklets for sale. You may purchase the anklets for $2. $1 goes to the team and the other is for anklet supplies. These are really cute, and a great way to show team spirit!

8 & Under Meet

We are hosting the 8 & Under Meet on Saturday, June 27, 2009. Our team will warm up at 7:00am and the meet will begin at 8:00am.

For this meet we will be running our concession stand, this is a huge fundraiser for our team, but we need volunteers who do NOT have children competing in the meet.

We are also responsible for the awards and again, we are looking for volunteers (older swimmers especially) to take on this responsibility. Please let Cristine or Jane know if you will volunteer for this meet.

Anyone attending the 8 & Under meet will need to bring a canned food donation for a local food drive charity, so please help Sundance do it's part for the community.
