With after school practices starting, the Coaches as well as the Board would like to remind you of a few things. Please read this carefully.

1)      Please have all swimmers wear athletic clothing on top of their swimsuits (i.e. t-shirt and loose athletic type shorts – not jean or dressy shorts) and wear tennis shoes. There will be approximately 15 minutes of dry land exercises for each age group before they practice in the water. This is also necessary if due to inclement weather or temperature of the pool, they can still practice/exercise even if not swimming.

2)      Practices will be everyday unless you are notified either by email or posting at the pool. Unless there is thunder and/or lightning, swimmer can practice in light rain. We will try to get any last minute changes to you as soon as possible if practices are cancelled.

3)       If you have not done so already, please download the required forms (Medical Release Wavier and the Parent Code of Conduct) and sign these for your swimmer to bring to the pool TODAY! YOUR CHILD WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SWIM AT PRACTICES UNTIL THESE FORMS ARE SIGNED AND TURNED INTO US! This is a NWAL League rule to have waivers on site for swimmers and we will not be able to allow your child to swim until we have this formed signed by you. You can download these forms from our website and we will have a few copies at the pool today. ONLY ONE (1) SIGNED FORM IS REQUIRED PER FAMILY– JUST LIST ALL SWIMMERS NAMES ON FORM

4)      If you have not turned in your registration fee yet, please do so as soon as possible.   These fees should be paid prior to your child attending practices. There will be board Members at all the practice times today collecting all required form s and payments. Please see either Mark or Marianne Pizzino or Angela Thompson during practice times today.

5)      Please remember ONLY SWIMMERS ARE ALLOWED IN POOL AREA. This is for the safety of all swimmers and an NWAL League rule as well. Parents can wait in either the covered pavilion area or outside the fenced area near parking lot. If there are any issues or concerns with your swimmer while they are at practice, a Coach or Board Member will contact you for discussion. We will have a Coaches book in the pavilion for any questions/comments you might want to discuss with the Coaching staff.

6)      And lastly, please remember to follow pavilion rules and respect the pavilion and playground areas as well. If we do not maintain the pavilion area and keep clean, we will lose the privilege of using this facility during practices. PLEASE ATTEND TO YOUR CHILDREN IN THE PAVILION AND/OR PLAYGROUND. The Coaches are not responsible for any swimmers or siblings who are left unattended during practice times. Their responsibility is to attend to the team swimmers during the age group practice times only and cannot focus on other unattended children outside the pool area.  In addition, everyone must use caution in the parking lot. Many children will either be entering or exiting the pool or riding bikes to practice. Drive slow!

We look forward to another great season! Thank you for your cooperation and support of our program.
