District info and End of Year Banquet (7/20)
Good Afternoon,
It is hard to believe summer swim is almost over! Congratulations to everyone who participated in the meet yesterday. Many of you swam new events and did great. We are all very proud of all of you!
Tuesdays practice will be the last official practice of the season. District is Wednesday. Those who qualify for the Championship meet will have practice on Thursday and Friday (at modified times). We will be reaching out to those who qualify for the Championship meet with practice information.
District meet: Our district meet is Wednesday (7/16) at Albuquerque Country Club . If your swimmer wants to ride the bus, be at the city pool by 5:20 am. Bus leaves at 5:30 am. If you are driving up your swimmer, please be at ACC no later than 7:00 am. Meet starts at 8:20 am. Be sure to bring shade. Socorro will be set up on the grassy area North of the pool. We still need a few more volunteers. Sign up on swimtopia or reply back to this email.
End of Year Banquet: We will be having our end of year banquet, Sunday (July 20th) at 4:00 pm at the city pool. It will be a potluck. We will provide hot dogs, hot dog buns, mustard, ketchup, relish, and paper goods. We are asking families to bring something to share (toppings for hot dogs, chips, fruits, veggies, dessert, etc.) and bring your own drinks. After we eat, we will give out awards/end of year gifts. Then we will open the pool for the kids (and siblings/family) to swim.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
Go Stingrays!
Recap:
How do swimmers qualify for finals? If your swimmer places top 3 in district (overall, not just in their heat), they automatically qualify for the Sundance Championship meet this Saturday 7/19. On Thursday, we will meet with the league and then take the next fastest 7 swimmers from all the districts as "wildcards". We will notify you Thursday evening if your swimmer qualifies as a wildcard. This will give us the top 16 swimmers in each event.
