I hope everyone has been able to enjoy the beautiful weather we have been having this weekend. We have a busy week ahead at the pool, so make sure you read the whole email so you know what is going on.

City Meet Deadline: City Meet is now less than 3 weeks away and the deadline to register is this Wednesday at noon. We ask that all swimmers declare their status for the meet, whether they are or are not going. This is our big championship meet, so we hope that all swimmers will be able to attend!

10 & Under Fun Meet: We have rescheduled our meet to this Tuesday, June 24th. This will replace the 9:45, 10:45, and 11:30 practice times. The 5 pm practice will also be canceled for the Fun Meet. We ask that swimmers RSVP for the meet by Tuesday morning at 9 am so coaches can be fully prepared. 

Concord Hills Meet: We have another away dual meet this week against Concord Hills. This meet is very important in deciding the league standings this year, so we need as many kids as possible for it. The deadline to register for the meet is Tuesday at noon. 

GMST Pool Party: July 6th from 6-8 pm, the GMST Board is putting on a pool party for the swim team at Green Meadow. There will be food, drinks, games, and a DJ. It should be really fun, so I encourage all our families to attend.

Swimmers of the Week: The coaching staff had a very tough time deciding on swimmer of the week for week 4, but these swimmers stood out through their attitudes, commitment to the team, and overall performance throughout the last week. The swimmers are:

Michael LoRe, Stella Wojakiewicz, August Jones, and Lila Thompson

Make sure you guys come and claim your certificates and prizes from Coach Sam.
