Coming up this week we will have our second B meet, third A meet, and on Sunday we have the A Relays! (PLEASE check below for your childs name and instructions about A relays). In addition to all the meets, we have Team Picture Day tomorrow, and lots of fun things to do, including tie dye day and getting ready for MVF's annual July 4th parade!

Read on for more information!

1. Picture Day is Monday, June 26

The entire team (including pre-team!) is asked to arrive at Hurley Park by 6:15 pm. Splendid Portraits will take a team photo, and then individual photos if desired. Picture Day forms were handed out to some parents last week. Please fill those out, include payment, and bring to the pool with you. If you did not receive a form, we will have some available to fill out there. (A single 8x10 Team Picture is $18.00).

2. B Meet on Wednesday at Plantations

Address: 23686 Rolling Fork Way, Gaithersburg, MD 20882

  • Theme: Captain Underpants (B Meet Themes are always the same as the previous A Meet)
  • Warm-ups: Please arrive by 5:00, so you are ready to be in the water at 5:10 to warm-up.
  • Swimmer Sign-ups: http://www.TheVolunteerSpace.com/vol.cfm?ID=14S
    • The deadline for swimmers to sign up is the end of AM practice on Tuesday!
  • Volunteer Sign-ups: Even though this is not a home meet, we still need LOTS of help! We especially need timers (This is the best "seat" in the pool! Timers get to see all the action up close. If enough timers sign up, we can have different timers for the first and second half of the meet! There is NO experience necessary to be a timer!) http://www.TheVolunteerSpace.com/vol.cfm?ID=271
  • B Meet Eligibility: basic information on how the B meets work on the Neptunes website here: B Meets.

3. Tie Dye Friday!!!

The team will provide rubber bands, dye, bags. A limited number of white shirts will be on sale for $5 each. (If you know for sure you will need them, let us know so we can try to have enough available) You can also bring your own shirt, and Neptunes shirts may also be available to purchase.

AM PRACTICE from 9:15 - 10:30

10 and unders should come at 9:15 to tie dye

11+ will tie dye from 10:00 to 10:30.

4. A Meet on Saturday at Tanterra

Address: 18605 Tanterra Way, Brookeville, MD 20833

More details to follow, including swimmers needed, later this week. If you already know you are not available Saturday, please reply to this email, or let Coach Allison know!

Theme: Red/White/blue Tie Dye! Wear your newly dyed shirts!

5. A Relays on Sunday at North Creek - SWIMMERS

See your email for the swimmers that are needed at this time for the A Relay Carnival on Sunday, July 2nd at 8 am. The line up may change based on performance at Saturday's A meet, if that happens I will send an updated list out! Please text Coach Allison, saying YES and your swimmers name or NO and your swimmers name, The whole meet is RELAYS so if a swimmer does not show it means the others can not swim either, so the earlier I know the better so that I can then change the relay. Thank you!

6. July 4th Parade next Tuesday

This week at practice we will begin getting ready for the parade next week! We are finalizing details on this year's theme and will begin getting signs/banners/etc. ready during the practices this week! More details to follow.

As always, if you have any questions, please let me know!

Thanks,

Jen Hammond
