Neptunes Families, We’re excited to get the swim season started this week!

Swim team practice starts TOMORROW afternoon, Tuesday, May 28th!

[NOTE: This does not apply to Minis – watch for Mini-specific emails in June.]

Here are a few reminders:

1. Swim practice times:

• 4:00-5:00pm:  ages 13-18
• 5:00-6:00pm:  ages 9-12
• 6:00-6:50pm:  ages 8 and under

2.  Check your swimmer(s) in at the Swim Team tent/table (in the back corner of the pool deck) on the first day you arrive. There, we’ll confirm that your swimmer(s) is (are) registered, and that their registration fee is paid (or collect registration checks). Remember that your swimmer(s) cannot practice until their registration fee is paid and volunteer deposit received. **See the email from Tyler Wyllie from Friday, May 25th for further details or clarifications.

3.  At the Swim Team check-in table we will also assign your swimmer to 1 of 3 practices lanes. Please help them to remember their lane number.

4.  All swimmers must be able to swim a continuous 25 meters (one length of the pool) unassisted within the first week of practice (by Friday). If a swimmer cannot safely cross the pool on their own, the Head Coach will suggest that the swimmer join the MINI Neptunes program. The Head Coach is best equipped to decide what is safe for your swimmer.

5.  Don't forget your pool pass!

6.  WEATHER!  Sign up for the REMIND text notification service. This is the best way to receive timely notifications on practice/meet delays or cancellations. To sign up for text messages, text @nfneptunes to 81010. You will then be prompted to respond with your name, and you’ll be signed up. A Remind app is also available, but you do not need it to receive text message notifications.

Questions?  Email me.

See you tomorrow!
