Mini Meet

Wow! Great job everyone! I was very proud of how brave everyone was in trying new events! Every swimmer either swam a 400 or 200 free and for most of you it was a new experience. Although some of us were a little nervous, everyone tried their best and finished the race.
A big thank you to the Senior swimmers who came out to help! It was much appreciated and it was a great opportunity for the younger kids to meet the older swimmers.

Below are the results from the mini meet. Blue boxes mean it's a new race and yellow boxes mean it was a best time.

Be a friend

Remember that it's always good to help others out, even if you're not best friends! Although swimming isn't a team sport the same way that soccer or hockey are, we're still a team and we need to treat each other like team mates. Stay tuned for our Stars of Practice criteria! The swimmers helped me come up with a lot of great ideas. Now we're just waiting before we start because a couple swimmers from I Can Swim might be joining our group this month!
