Hi GMST- 

We are quickly approaching the beginning of the season!  If you have not yet registered for this summer, please do so online at gmst.swimtopia.com!

See below for some announcements. 

Preseason: We have added a few more opportunities to join us for some preseason practices. Each session is $10. Please email us to let us know if you're coming for general headcount purposes as we have limited pool space. 

• Sunday, May 22- 3:00-4:00
• Monday, May 23- 6:15-7:15pm
• Wednesday, May 25- 6:15-7:15pm
• Sunday, May 29- 4:00-5:00

Junior Coaches: Each year, we love to have some of our older swimmers (ages 12-16) assist with the 8 and under practice (11:15-12:00) each day. They are in the water with the swimmers assisting them with their strokes and making sure they stay safe. Junior coaches are not paid, but it's a great way to get experience working with the younger swimmers. If your swimmer would like to assist with these practices, please reply to this email or email [email protected] and let us know. Coach Breanna will be in touch to get them organized for the season. 

T-Shirts: T-shirt orders will be collected through June 1 through Pokey's website at https://gmst2022.itemorder.com. If you ordered your shirt in the first wave (prior to April 25) your shirts will be ready at the Pancake Breakfast. All other shirts will be ready for pickup as soon as possible after the order is placed. 

Pancake Breakfast: Our first practice on Memorial Day is also our annual Pancake Breakfast! We haven't been able to have pancakes the last 2 years, but are bringing back the tradition this year. Please sign up to donate items on our website under "Job Signups for the breakfast (https://gmst.swimtopia.com/swim_meets) and drop any items off at the pool next weekend or the morning of the breakfast. We will be cooking up fresh pancakes all morning, so feel free to come right around your swimmers practice time and enjoy some pancakes (we have a suggested $5 donation to eat) and hang out before we get in the water for the first time. 

More to come soon! We're getting excited!
