Bronze Group News:Mini-meet and end of session party!Hello parents & swimmers in the Bronze Group! Next
Thursday, December 16,we'll have our
mini-meet and a little party afterward to mark the end of
our first Bronze Group session. We plan on starting right at 6:30 just like usual;
we'll let everybody swim easy- work on some drills, give everybody a chance to
go off the blocks- until 6:45, then we'll clear the pool so we can get started no
later than 6:50 p.m. We'll go through the following events:
25 yard Freestyle
25 yard Backstroke
25 yard Breaststroke
25 yard Butterfly
100 IM (individual medley- one length of each stroke)
We'll have an official starter using the electronic starting device, so everybody
can get acclimated to how events will start at sanctioned meets. We will need
thirteen parent volunteers to time (two per lane for six lanes, and one "Head
Timer" who starts two watches for each race in the unlikely event that one of
the watches used by a timer malfunctions). If you're interested in volunteering
to time, please come down on deck at the start of workout and let us know. It's
a great way to get a close-up view of all the action! We have plenty of stopwatches
for you to use, so please consider volunteering to time - we can't start the meet
until we have thirteen timers.
Once the meet is over (should be right around 7:30-7:40), we'll have juice &
goodies for everybody in the downstairs conference room - same room as our
Halloween Party (refreshments are courtesy of CCPR).
For the record, our last workout will be
Monday, December 21 (regular time);
however, we've heard that several families will have already left for the holidays,
as well as one of our coaches. Additionally, there is an event scheduled here at the
pool that day, which will make things noisy, and cause us to have to swim in the
middle pool. So it's better for us to have our mini-meet on the 16th. If you can join
us for workout on December 21,
GREAT - we're looking forward to having you!
On behalf of
SMAC and its coaches, we want to thank all of you for being a part
of our club this first year! We're excited to be coaching your children, and looking
forward to watching them grow up and continue developing into accomplished
student-athletes. We hope to see all of you in the next session! Enjoy the holidays!
