GMST Week 2
Happy Sunday GMST,
I hope everyone had a great first week of practice. We are hoping for better weather this week! Please see below for announcements and reminders.
Green and White Meet: The Green & White Meet is THIS THURSDAY. Please sign up if you are attending on Swimtopia-- Go to our website and log in with the login created at registration. Under "Swim Meets" you will be able to RSVP for the meet and also volunteer to work at the meet. Please sign up by Tuesday at noon if you plan on attending. If you are unable to make it to the meet, it would also be helpful to the coaching staff if you marked that you cannot attend. Warmups for the meet will be at 5 pm so we ask that all swimmers arrive by 4:45. A roster for team green and team white will be released by Wednesday morning.
We still need a handful of volunteers to make sure the meet runs smoothly. This is a great meet to learn new positions and for your swimmers to learn what a meet is like.
Meet Apps: There are 3 apps that are helpful (although not required) for this seasons meets. QR codes are hanging at the pool to help you download them. We are introducing a new timing system that will help with your swimmers times AND has some really cool live results features-- Time Drops Live! is the app. We will be using Swimtopia for our meet entries so you can see what your kids are swimming and their results, and X (@greenmeadowswim) for event calls and other announcements.
Stroke Clinics: Some of our coaches will be offering some stroke clinics on concentrated topics throughout the season. Coach Madi will be leading them and spots are limited. Each 45 minute session will have a focus and will be $20 per swimmer. Visit Stroke Clinics to sign up for a session. Stroke Clinics with Madi
Parking Lot Paving: The club will be having the parking lot paved on Tuesday, June 3rd. It will impact only the lower parking lot in front of the pool (Fixing the buckled areas). Please be prepared to park in the upper lot that morning and note that there will be less parking than normal.
Village Green Meet: The Village Green Meet is next Tuesday, June 10th. Sign-ups for this meet are due by Sunday at noon. Please go ahead and sign up. We'd love to have all of our swimmers at this meet for team pictures and since they are one of our big rivals!
Merchandise: We have our 2nd round of Pokeys orders open now. If you'd like to order a shirt, please go to the link below. Link will close June 4th.

Coach Shout Outs: Our coaches would love to hear from you! Comment or shout out any coaches at Coach Shout Outs
City Meet: It's never too early to bring up our Championship meet, which will be July 10-12 at UT. We want to be able to take all of our swimmers to that meet. In order to qualify, swimmers must participate in 1 official Dual Meet this summer. Please consider signing up for one of our dual meets (like June 10th vs Village Green) so that you can qualify for City Meet!
See you at the pool this week!
