Congratulations to our 12&Unders for defeating CPD White and finishing 6th in the AWP 12&Under Coed League this year. We also defeated LAW earlier in the season and had a close game with them yesterday! Thanks to Coaches Elizabeth & Jose for helping run the table, admissions, and scorer's desk. Thanks also to George's mom, Finn's mom, and Megan's mom for helping out at admissions and the scorer's table. Your help allowed us to run a great event that kept the schedule on time and without any problems! Thank you again.

Practice this week is Monday and Tuesday 6-7:30pm. Practice next week is Monday and Wednesday. We will be in the pool 6-7pm and then we will have an activity from 7-7:30pm, so practice time will be the same as usual. This year, we have sponsored a tree at the Brookfield Zoo. We are planning on creating our ornaments at practice 7-7:30pm on Monday, November 3 and Wednesday, November 5. We may also do some ornament making in Colorado. We will decorate our tree the weekend before Thanksgiving, Saturday, November 22 and Sunday, November 23 - specific date and time TBD. We will have 5 free parking passes and 20 free zoo tickets for anyone who is interested in joining us. I'll be sending out more information and talking about this fun event with the kids over the next two weeks. Once we set the specific time and date of decorating the actual tree (Nov. 22 & 23), you can email me if you want parking passes or zoo passes. Ideally, a few car pools might be an easy way to get everyone to the zoo without much of a cost.
