1) Lost Dutchman Recap
• Great job by our 5 boys at the meet this past weekend. They contributed so many points to our team score. Our age group boys (14 and under) came out in 1st place! If you combine those points with the girls point…we won the meet by 200+ points!!!! Now we need to build off of this momentum and carry it into States in one month. Our goal should be to come out on top their as well!
• Swimmers of the Meet go to our 4 boys who swam over 15 events each during the course of the weekend! Congratulations to Cameron Heidenreich, Kyle McCoy, Connor Roman and Ethan Wojciechowski!

Hi all! Here are some notes for this week…

1) Lost Dutchman Meet is this weekend. I put updated entry sheets in the file folders today along with a meet information sheet. I think I only made a couple of changes. The updated sheets will be dated 2/11/2008.
2) Practice changes for this week due to the meet-
• Friday- 5:00 – 6:00pm
• Saturday – 10:00 – 11:00am
• Monday 2/18 – 5:00 – 6:00pm
3) Far Western Info sheets were put in the file folders for the following 3 swimmers: Kyle M, Connor R and Ethan W. Please return those to me ASAP if you plan on going or not. We are trying to get an idea if we will have enough swimmers to go.
4) Later this week or early next week I will have the end of season plan for the swimmers. This will let them know what meets they are qualified for and should plan on attending.

Attached is an updated practice schedule for next week. I changed the following due to the Lost Dutchman Meet:

1) Friday 2/15 – Practice is 5:00 – 6:00
2) Saturday 2/16 – Practice is 10:00 – 11:00
3) Monday 2/18 – Practice is 5:00 – 6:00

Hi all! Here are some notes for this week…

1) Attached is the practice schedule for this week and next. I will put these in the file folders tomorrow. Please remember that Friday practice will be from 5:30 – 7:00.

2) Lost Dutchman is next weekend. There will be no practice on Saturday 2/15 and Monday 2/17 due to the meet.

3) We have two swimmers that expressed interest in swimming on the meet this Saturday from the White Group (Audrey and Kevan Mann). Coach Jennifer will have swimmers going as well.

4) Later this week I will send out a listing of who is qualified for what end of season meet so you can start planning.

5) Please talk to your swimmers about not sliding around in the wet grass and puddles….especially when it is cold out. I feel sorry for you parents that have to wash their clothes when they come home. We do not need anymore sick kids.

That is all for right now.

Thanks!
Coach Kevin
